This is another reason why I’m trying to move away from anything Google. They have a pretty good track record of shutting things down
At this point they can just shut down Google. Oh well. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Pretty good? It seems like it’s their business modell.
Devil’s (literally) advocate: they also have released a ton of services. Having said that, I still miss Inbox (the alternative gmail app/frontend)
Add it to the pile.
Remember to never try any new Google products for at least five years to see if they’re serious about it

Edit: Now I see it. ‘Remember, never any Google products’. I spent ages and just couldn’t see what you meant. 🤦
I’m still pissed about how they removed recursive calling from hey google actions
Is there an alternative?
It’s right in the meme
Okay but I’m pronouncing it “Cue-Jizz”, solely because pronouncing Arc-Jizz that way royally annoys my Earth Science major wife. XD
Horrible text colour choice tbf
The text color wasn’t a choice; it was just a consequence of putting the preexisting QGIS logo over the preexisting meme background.
The meme maker should’ve layered a shadow or contrasting-color rectangle under it.
QGIS logo:
I am not color blind, but holy shit was that easy to miss.
Is there a plug in for 3d terrain / buildings yet?
Yeah that’s the only part of GEarth I really care about.
Actually, I was going to download this yesterday.
I need a good app to create gpx files for hiking…
While I am loathe to recommend a non-FOSS option, I have been really happy with GaiaGPS.
Yeah… I am also aware of Captopo too… GaiaGPS is one I looked at, and FarOut (based on info from Maddie and Tom: https://theadventuregene.com/australian-alps-walking-track/#navigation ) .
Google Earth Pro was 100% free for a while though, and I was more familiar with it. I used a OSM mapping layer on top
QGIS is what the meme is about. I didn’t see it when I looked either
Yeah… When you mentioned, it makes sense now.
It was neat, the few times i tried it out 10 years back. But Osmand is more performant on the phone than Earth was on desktop and has better features.
Will my flatpak app just stop working?
I imagine like everything else it relies on their servers to function so…prolly =\
