Is Google Maps getting worse? - eviltoast

My dad uses Google Maps, and he mentioned that it seems to be getting worse. Like, giving him directions that are obviously worse than alternatives. Has anyone else here experienced this?

    I know. But I won’t.
    Hypermiling is as fun to me as driving fast is for others.
    It’s like a mini-game I get to play every time I’m forced to drive a car.

      I hypermile casually but I’m not sacrificing travel time to save a bit of gas.

      Ahh, I misinterpreted your post as a complaint. I’m not a hypermiler, but I do find the efficient routes are often the lowest stress routes as well.
