Is Google Maps getting worse?
Is Google Maps getting worse?
My dad uses Google Maps, and he mentioned that it seems to be getting worse. Like, giving him directions that are obviously worse than alternatives. Has anyone else here experienced this?

I know it's not new, but I've been seeing a lot more "suggested" (read: sponsored) places along my routes these days. Either businesses are just now discovering the feature, or they lowered the barrier for entry. Either way, it's annoying as fuck to have ads pop up that I have to avoid when moving the map around to navigate
It's an intentional move they've been testing. Looks like you're one of the "lucky" participants.
