It hasn’t stopped being great. In fact it’s better than it ever was.
We need better safe guards and checks so that some person can’t just delete France.
The map is updated millions of times per day. There are checks in place, but minor edits don’t get much review especially if it’s something simple like “this street has a bus stop”. Deleting France, yeah someone would notice that change and block it. Most software doesn’t use the realtime map state - they use a slightly older version of the map in part to avoid using a version of the map that has been compromised.
You really only see the current map state if you are editing the map.
They never really dealt with the games biggest issue though and that was the massive battery drain. Once they hype died down it was just a way to kill my phone faster when I’m out and about and will more likely need it before I can charge it again.

“I stopped liking this thing, why doesn’t everyone else agree with me?!?!”
