Alright, so I've replaced Google with duckduckgo, Chrome with Firefox, Gmail with Protonmail...
What's the replacement for Google maps?
- I use Organic Maps on Android (which uses OpenStreetMap data), but I haven't found a good alternative that also tracks traffic.
  
  ya, the traffic info is what I mostly use it for...
  
  You could try ViaMichelin Not saying it doesn't track you, but atleast it's not Google
- Though I haven't used it myself, I've seen OpenStreetMaps recommended several times on Lemmy.
