2024: The year of the OpenStreetMap vector maps
Slightly offtopic
I have OsmAnd ( https://github.com/osmandapp/OsmAnd ) on my phone, download the basemaps, download my (small) country data (both sourced from open street maps), and with an app + ~1GB of data, I get the maps and full navigation within my country, POIs, etc., and can add other countries when needed.
Is there something similar for a PC? I can download data from open street maps, but then I need postgres, postgis, a tile server and styles and apache running just to generate the tiles. Is there anything portable (short of running osmand in an android virtualbox) for offline navigation on a linux pc? QGIS can display vectors, but I wasn't able to easily style the data... navigation is a no-go there too. anything else?

"I'm in this picture and I don't like it"
OsmAnd works for me. I am looking to get off Google, so I try to retire anything that is not on F-Droid. OsmAnd is a independent project ( osmand.net ) that uses the data you can also access under www.openstreetmap.org . The App is not perfect and sometimes it calls for the wrong action, for example when a road is just taking a steep turn it might ask for you to turn onto a different road which is actually the same every now and then. Also Google uses the location data of it's users to change routes depending on congestion afaik. Don't expect that from OsmAnd.

Organic Maps & OsmAnd~ are the classic map alternatives but i don't use them.

WiFi without internet on a Southwest flight
When I am on a flight and the flight does not provide the flight information, I am using the OsmAnd, https://osmand.net/, to monitor the flight altitude, speed and direction.

Improving your online privacy: An update
Regarding usage of OpenStreetMap over Google Maps - assuming we're talking mobile usage - you might give OSMAnd[0] a try. I've been using it exclusively on a Pixel loaded with GrapheneOS for a few months now. I would never consider going back to GMaps and I don't feel that I've lost anything either.

Organic Maps
OSMAnd tracks users using a secret supercookie by default because the developer wants metrics. This is done without consent. The defensiveness of the developer with regards to such unethical tracking means that I will never use any software they ever release.

Are there good alternatives to Google for 2FA?
Bottom line is, why in the world would you use a mysterious closed source app when there are better options out there? 2FAS is one of the better ones. Aegis Authenticator is another good choice for Android devices.

Amazon Account with unauthorised purchases, did my google passwords get leaked
You can enable 2fa with amazon I suggest you do that with a 2fa app like aegis, that will greatly increase the security of your account and require the 2fa code to login to your account.

Ask HN: How do you deal with TOTP 2-factor auth?
I use Aegis[1] on mobile and OTPClient[2] on my computer, both are regularly backed up on change.
I do not use the TOTP feature in my password manager (though I can split it to new DB in keepassXC) as feel it will defeat the purpose of 2FA.
