  • organic maps is built on open maps and is FOSS. Takes some getting used to though. The time estimates aren’t accurate (it doesn’t account for traffic) so always add time to the estimate, and you can’t really search for things by name you generally need to input addresses (except for maybe your airport. This also varies based on where you live because folks might be updating it more for you locally).

    Basically it’s a solid option but not good enough for me to ditch Apple maps completely (I trust apple slightly more than gmaps but not by a large margin lol).

















  • The lemmy devs don’t think they need to do anything because they don’t think transphobia is a problem. They don’t care about giving you effective mod tools because they don’t think bigotry needs to be stopped.

    We see this shit time and time again. This nonsense faux “free speech” commitment and just general unwillingness to allow people to create safe spaces if they choose is endemic to new platforms, communities etc. that simply don’t care to put in the work because they aren’t personally bothered by the issues. New mods always act like it’s a virtue to “let the community figure it out” even when 1 or 2 people cause outsized issues.

    All of this is to say I believe in the beehaw vision and will gladly follow y’all where you go.
