HERE WeGo still has Gulf of Mexico. Use HERE WeGo instead of Google shit.

Open Steet Maps also shows Gulf of Mexico. Most maps seem to get their data either from Osm, Bing or Google.

I just need to use Gemini until this semester is over, then I’ll be degoogling completely. I just wish I could deapple too, but nope. Nearly every OS for mobile is built on android, browsers that are for “security” are run on chromium, safari is good for security but you have to pay for iCloud plus or whatever they call it to get the private relay option, it is infuriating that we just can’t get freedom from this garbage. Things are purposefully made to be so expensive that only huge companies can afford to run it, openAI and meta literally pirated books, articles, journals, etc and although WE don’t like it, the government doesn’t care because OpenAI and meta are big companies who can do those things; neither Trump nor Biden gave a shit about it. We need

There are a few options like graphene os, /e/os, lineage OS etc. Take a look. I am de Googleing right now and shifted to e/os for a few months, it has been going well.

This will make groceries cheaper

Google goes full mask off. What a terrible look. This is it, this is what I needed to see to make the final push to move away from Google. My next phone will probably be an iPhone, and I'm not excited about it. I've almost completely degoogled my android device, I'm testing immich right now and the only things left that I rely on are maps and YouTube. I also buy a lot of my ebooks and comics from Google, but never again. There's no way I'm buying a phone that's supported by Google after this change. There's no way I'm spending any amount of money on Google play at this point, or any other Google owned platform. Zero. And it really sucks, because android is the closest thing we have to an open phone platform. Maybe someday a GNU/Linux phone will actually be viable, but today it isn't and that only leaves me running to Apple as a savior. It's too bad that Google can't compete on a technology level, instead of gargling Trump's balls.
