Qwant Maps: Why not bringing it back! (lemm.ee)

Qwant maps has been out for a year, as the developers goal was to focus on the search engine improvement. With the increased trend to promote european alternatives (BuyFromEU) and growing concerns over privacy (Degoogle) we saw some alternatives such as Organic Maps, Here Wego, Mapy.cz etc...

I feel like Qwant Maps was aiming to be a true Google Maps replacement, so here is my question: In your opinion should it be brought back to life or are you happy with other existing alternatives?

Would be interesting to learn why they decided to discontinue Qwant Maps. I wonder if it’s a technological hurdle, a competitor issue or something else.

I’m still looking for a good Google/Apple Maps replacement with good UX and enough information about local businesses.
