Not if you're using a privacy focused OS

True; I think I used LineageOS or similar back when I was still in Android but if you’re not in the 0.01% who do have a custom Android OS installed it seems like a privacy focused map app is still of limited use potentially.

Like you noticed, this is a privacy community, so the percentage is much higher here. And there is value in offline maps even if we put privacy aside.
