For years, Google Maps has been a go-to tool for millions worldwide, seamlessly integrated into search results for instant access to directions, locations, and more. But if you’ve noticed something missing recently, you’re not imagining things. Due to European Union regulations, Google has been forced to remove its Maps functionality from its search results, marking a significant shift in how we interact with the tech giant’s ecosystem.

Wow, that's amazing and insightful. Repeating the same exact thing year after year for something that happened the better part of a decade ago must be exhausting.

The Crypto and the IPFS are there, They don't even push you to use them. You can even right click the triangle and say remove from browser.

If you want a reasonable gripe, gripe that they're selling your data. Grape the three default to their own search and sell that data.

Complain about anything interesting that copy and paste is old enough It should be getting ready for high school.

These are my own observations. Of course, I can put up with these shortcomings, but why should I if I can just use Firefox? It is the only non-Chromium browser that is more flexible thanks to css support.

I didn't come on your post and say you shouldn't use Firefox. Why are you insinuating that?
