    I’m not about to downvote you, but, I seriously don’t miss paper maps.

    Every time there’s a new neighborhood somewhere you have no freaking clue where a road is because you need to go out and buy the latest paper map.

    I’ll just use open street map thanks.

      I’m not talking about paper maps, I use Google maps myself. I do like the feel of a paper map but they aren’t practical anymore for the reasons you mentioned.

      I even search for my destination and look at where I’m going.

      However I don’t use the navigation feature. Never seen the need. If I can’t find my way around the city without an AI holding my hand, I’ve got dementia.
