Pretty cool project I’d not heard of. Those offline gps nav permissions seem pretty excessive for a project claiming privacy focus.
Care to share what specifically worries you about an offline app utilizing your gps nav data to feed you real time directions? Which permissions I mean. I have org maps but don’t use it too too often because it’s still a little unreliable for me. But I’d love to completely move to it
Is there also a privacy focused alternative to yelp? I’d like to know the ratings of a business before I start driving.
There are organizations that purport to be Yelp alternatives, such as Open Reviews Association, but I haven’t seen anything with widespread integration or adoption. It’s a cool idea nonetheless.
This is honestly the only thing I use gmaps for too. I feel like organic and other map apps are useful, but there are very few others for looking up restaurant/business info with the ease of gmaps
Is yelp even reliable? No bots?
Bots are not the problem, yelp’s own business practices are.
Pretty sure they’re able to rank votes differently based on how sure they are a person is a person.
Well, recaptcha has trouble with this.
