Apple Maps has been disenabled in my country since like 2014. And just like that, I don’t miss it anymore

I have Apple Maps, Google Maps, OpenStreets, Organic Maps and Sidekick Pro installed on my phone. Used do use Google until they started getting creepy and Apple Maps started getting decent; then switched to Apple Maps as my default.

If this goes through, Organic Maps becomes the default with Sidekick for car navigation/recorder.

The lack of ads/ ad-related detritus is the only reason people use Apple Maps, which is an inferior product anyway.

They really want to alienate their loyal customer base, don’t they? Source: I am part of their loyal customer base.

I’m old enough to remember when Apple was the one with taste. They used to pride themselves on being the classy alternative to user-hostile competitors like Microsoft.

The only reason I used Apple Maps in the first place. Might have to go all in on OSM…
