Time to say goodbye to the Windows Maps application. Microsoft is killing it for good later this year.

So what's next Microsoft? My biggest fear is you taking OSM and EEE-ing it

I miss Streets and Trips from 2002. All the road maps without any internet needed. The killer feature that I don't see in any modern apps is that you could click on roads in the trip summary and set the speed limit. So if you were planning a trip you could click on a section of highway that you knew you could speed on and put in the actual speed you'd be driving instead of the speed limit.

That's sad, it's actually somewhat nice to have. It actually works better than my 2021 car's integrated maps, which is wild. Yes, the OEM screwed up the maps app so badly that most streets don't even have names visible, and the car struggles to find even basic chains, camp sites, addresses, etc.
