Rosetta Stone is also US owned.

I pay for a family plan and share it with a bunch of people. Several are government workers and use it in addition to traditional training, so it is actually an important subscription.

It’s one of my last US subscriptions.

Updated to include a disclaimer for Non-European but open source/self-hostable software and replace Pipedrive with efficy as the wrong Imprint was used to identify as European while being American.

The next infographic is ready. Any feedback is appreciated!

I’ve downloaded Here WeGo maps, but I’ve noticed that the app lacks a review system. Additionally, the detail level for most places is quite poor.

Which Google Maps alternative is your favorite?
