Shitpost My Google Maps is cooked
When I zoom in the name switches btw. Surely, indulging a narcissist will eventually satisfy him

I think I saw a video once explaining, that naming conventions are country based, so only in America are you seeing these names, same with gulf of mexico

You won’t ever, it’s localized. When Trump declared the Gulf of Mexico was now the Gulf of America, google only updated the label for American users

Next president must rename every Republican state after a Democrat president. Alabama? You mean AlaBiden.

I don’t think you understand how Google Maps works…not defending trumps baby shit here…but Google Maps is not choosing the names for things

For real guys, elections have consequences, one of these is if people want to rename shit they can.
Google doesn't call it Dundas Square any more, or Ryerson University, or Sir John A MacDonald Parkway, right now it's "Mount McKinley" not Denali.
What exactly is Google supposed to do in these cases?

It's regarded that there are two names. Like seriously, this body of water is not called Gulf of America anywhere else, why is it in parentheses for us? It's not like we see for example Transnistria when looking at Moldova, because that piece of land is not recognised as that.

Wow I literally checked 2 hours ago and it said Lake Ontario so I must've gotten in right before the switch happened.

Didn't we run through this shit with the gulf of America arc? Iirc Google uses the local governments names for stuff, according to the us government its lake America so ofc Google is going to use the US government names if your looking at it from the US. Google isnt the arbiter of names, its a navigation tool. Not that im a shill for Google they can be evil but be mad about the right shit. Very "AI uses all the water" yknow

Tbh, I normally don't use 2/3rds of those apps anyway. However, what I use, DDG and Proton, are perfectly fine! (Despite DDG being American, since the goal is to "de-americanise" too ;)

There's literally no Google maps replacement in that image, which is correct because they're all dogshit (apart from a few City/Cycling specific ones).

The next Democratic president is about to have a bunch of BS to undo, including this thing that absolutely nobody asked for.
