I am pretty over these videos of people whining about the amount of data big tech collects while refusing to move to alternatives because "muh convenience".
For those unaware, Organic Maps (uses OSM) is really good! It's good for 90% of all ur navigation needs. For the rest 10%, there's no good alternative to google maps unfortunately.
Nothing competes with osmand for hiking or cycling.
