I said it tries to find the fastest route. It is expected to not always succeed, for the reason I stated: No actual travel data

Something similar to ALPR avoidance was discussed recently, although mostly focused on navigation by foot and public cameras in general. Not sure what came of it though

Well obviously the routing engine already tries to find the fastest route. But there is no average speed traffic data Comaps harvests from its users, like Google etc. do, so it is only based on max speed and some heuristics. At least for now. Some limited near-realtime traffic functionality is planned.

It doesn't matter what they love in that regard, because they are incapable of making companies do things that help consumers or the environment

There's also pixelunion.eu

Basically a hosted version of Immich. Since they offer ML models for face recognition etc., your files are not end-to-end encrypted. Though they are very transparent about this and apparently make sure nobody has access, and data is encrypted at rest.

If you're not bothered by this, it might be a good option

That's one issue, but there's also the more general issue that healthcare can never be a truly free market - you cannot just decide not to get that lifesaving operation, and often your choice on with which doctor to get it is heavily limited as well.

It is idiotic to think a free market ideology could ever work in an inherently non-free market.

Note that we do have a unique location situation in that we do not by default use Google's proprietary fused location provider. Both for privacy reasons, and because it behaved weirdly on some degoogled devices. You can enable it in the settings, maybe that does something for you, or maybe it doesn't :P

There should be an app update coming tomorrow or so with a potential fix - although it is difficult to debug these location issues, so it is possible that it doesn't change anything in your case

If it can help their population, I am happy for it.

Their government has always had the resources to quickly change a hardcoded link in CoMaps source code and recompile the app, if they wanted to. So yeah.

One major motivation is the sharing of maps files in areas with bad internet connection. The custom map server allows one person to download the map and share it locally with others.
