You don't need Google maps.

What are you using? This post is a rage bait so someone would give me a good alternarive? 😅

A combination of things.

DDG or brave for searching stuff. This should be done to divorce one's self from the all-in-one Google panopticon, anyway.

Once I get the address, I preferentially use Organic Maps, as that app has mostly gotten address lookup for OSM to work at a less then "I want to smash my phone into the ground because this is 2025 and it should just effing work" level.

For longer trips I still use Waze since the travel alerts are still super useful, but I don't sign in so it isn't linked directly to any info Google should be able to find conveniently useful.

You can use OpenStreetMap

OSM doesn't do address lookup well yet. IMO.

Geoshare + OSM++ is a sort of hack. You can grab the Google maps link from your web browser and it will populate via Geoshare into OSM++.
