A lot of people (should) have removed goggles from their life long ago. |

This announcement ~2 years ago was what finally got me off Chrome. I found FOSS replacements for most Google products, the one that stuck around was Maps, until this week when I decided I can't use a product that no longer takes being accurate seriously when they pre-complied unnecessarily with Lake of America bullshit.

It's still a WIP but moving! |

Yeah I'm using CoMaps too. I noticed yesterday they don't have a windows client, just iOS and Linux. Fair is fair and all but wish I had an option for windows desktop since most people don't always want to look at maps on an android form factor. |

You could always suggest they make a windows client, or maybe try to use WSL to install the linux client; https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/tutorials/gui-apps Good luck in either case. :) |
