My dad uses Google Maps, and he mentioned that it seems to be getting worse. Like, giving him directions that are obviously worse than alternatives. Has anyone else here experienced this?

Do you know if either of these incorporate traffic conditions?

as they are privacy focused and have significantly fewer users, not yet.

but, the more users contributing and making requests, the sooner it could be integrated.

you can help by being one of those users!

Ive used those and their routing is not even close to Google maps

Does it save route history? Or destinations? That's one feature I like with Google, disregarding any privacy concerns.
