101 million is too small for such an epic error.

Compared to Telegram’s 1-billion user base, it’s still a roundoff error.

Nobody they know is on those platforms.

Nobody is on Signal either.

Signal was always better

I love the premise of Signal, but there are too many red flags. Some of my issues are:

• Hostility against 3rd party clients
• US-based legal entity
• Too much tied with Google libs on android
• No official Fdroid support
• Open source claims are undermined by code blackouts from time to time.

openstreetmap.org is a mappers website, not a map users website. It works great for mappers, but is horrible for people who want to use the map to find their way around.

I think the openstreetmap ecosystem really needs a better website for map users.

I see no benefit to using Waze. Openstreepmap works better.

First, google’s lawyers will not like that.

Second, in many places google maps data is not as good as Openstreetmap.

I use both OrganicMaps and OsmAnd. I find that OsmAnd is better for poweruser functions (like editing the map or recording a track), but OrganicMaps is a very simple navigation app that just works well.

It shows me where the speed cameras are :)

You can add the POIs and fill the gaps!

I disagree. It’s a step in the right direction, even if there is still a long distance to go.

My dad uses it. He’s as non-tech as non-tech gets. But I had to install it for him.

does glassdoor have any value now that blind and levels.fyi exist?

Openstreetmap is better than Google where I live (Anatolian side of Istanbul).

I left GoogleMaps a while ago, it worked fine for me. The only part of Google I can’t leave is Play Store. Aurora might be the best alternative there.

OrganicMaps is amazing. Strong recommend to everyone. I only recently found out about it.

I trust Chinese hardware more than I trust American ones.

prosecuting hateful speech is a very slippery slope. It effectively gives the government the authority to decide what speech is allowed, which can’t end well.
