I use it for everything except maps, there is no real alternative to Google maps as far as I know

I will check it but I doubt it will be as good for a rural european city as Google maps is.

Have you tried open street map? The geography nerds building that have a surprisingly up to date and high quality map of the rural midwestern region I live in so you might be pleasantly surprised

Maps

Which is getting worse now too.
It now searches "related" locations to what you searched for to show you more bought ads for locations instead of what you looked for originally. Get ready for the slow crawl of enshitification of maps now too.

Their maps are pretty bad, there are better alternatives although it can depend on your region. Navigation and POI search wise though they still seem the best to me.
