I just use Apple Maps. I know, “Apple bad” and all that, but in a duopoly I will choose the lesser of evils. No, I will not mess with custom ROMs on a Google-produced phone. I need my banking apps, and Google is now kneecapping most apps.
Most newer cars also have “good enough” navigation these days.
They're is no lesser evil between Apple and Google.
Disagree, but to each their own. I will always consider an advertising company to be worse than a products company. Mind you, they can both get fucked.
…and there’s the purity test downvote. It is completely unrealistic to expect people to exist without one of the big vendors. I have no Google apps on my phone; also, no Meta products either. I use tracking blockers and a pi-hole at home. The only company gathering data on me is Apple, and it’s in their best interest not to sell it considering their whole “privacy” stance. Not that it means much, but it’s sure as fuck better than Google.
