Google Maps also stopped showing connections that involve walks longer than 500 meters. It'll just be like "no its impossible to reach the other end of Berlin in half an hour by public transport. You need to change 6 times". Because it refuses to let me cross a bridge to another busstation because US brained people dont believe in legs.

@arianvp it's the worst, because the dubbing sometimes kicks in with music videos. Which is both hilarious and so stupid.
As far as I'm concerned Grayjay, Newpipe, etc. are the only remaining sane ways to watch Youtube.

@arianvp @noodlemaz We’ve gone back to CityMapper because it became so bad.

@arianvp I have noticed this as well, although I didn't realise it was because of the walking distance. So many times, I'm just confused on why it's not suggesting a route/connection that I KNOW is better...

@arianvp We believe in them, we just don't believe in demeaning ourselves by not always transporting in our class-defining, income-absorbing, CO2 spewing cars. I mean, come on, we walk from the parking lot into the store, and it can be hot, tiring work!

@ainmosni@social.ainmosni.eu @arianvp@functional.cafe I'm going to go out on a limb, and please don't confuse this as me defending this bullshit choice of theirs, but it might have something to do with how often walking that far can be impossible in the US. Not because of people's limitations, but because the public infrastructure to do so safely doesn't exist.
Obviously they should have people who know the area audit the routes their system is offering and adjust the defaults to reflect the local infrastructure. And please yell at them so they can fix it for your area. I'm just saying, this is very likely a systemic issue because of how car brained the people who build our infrastructure are, and how unsafe it is to walk in many parts of the US. And I say this as someone who was forced to use the broken infrastructure here for many years when I didn't have a car, where I was often walking along roads without sidewalks because there was no other route available to me or the next bus was an hour away, where my only other alternative was to pay for a fucking Lyft or Uber. -

@ainmosni @arianvp Is that why it's impossible to find a route to a bar I regularly catch a tram to by just walking to the tram stop!?
It also explains why only some routes are asymmetric, the northward side of some stops is further away than the southward side of the stop so you can only connect one way?!

US developers thinking that nobody speaks a second language, walks, or lives in any way differently than they do in their silicon valley prison is quite annoying.

@arianvp I stopped using Google maps something like two years ago. Now I mostly use CoMaps instead which uses OpenStreetMap data. It's not as complete as Google's such that searching for a local business has a better chance of failure than success. But, much like Google Maps, OpenStreetMap accepts user-submitted data. Unlike Google Maps, though, you're not providing a for-profit company with free labor, you're giving it to the community instead.

@alper @arianvp @noodlemaz I check citymapper but also if possible a local app/website because I have now twice had citymapper suggest an impossible route because of a temporary closure - citymapper has links to descriptions of problems but they are not always integrated into the app, especially if they are short-term changes.

Sincere question.
That's the beauty of walking. A sidewalk is not necessary.
(Other than highways, better to avoid highways.)
Walking is the freedom to go where you want to go without needing 'infrastructure'.

@penpencilbrush @deathkitten @arianvp To be fair, not having sidewalks in most urban environments (there's exceptions like Tokyo) is rough, as you definitely don't feel welcome as a pedestrian, and cars will treat you exactly like that. Sure, you can go off-road, but I don't always want to walk through the muck to get to places, especially if I want to arrive somewhere looking halfway decent.
