minus-squarefaercol@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up11·6 天前I’m French and in my case it’s “Gulf of Mexico (Gulf of America)”, so yeah both names
minus-squareblack0ut@pawb.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up12·6 天前Same thing in Spain. Kind of disgusting they’re forcing it on everyone. CoMaps still shows the proper name (Gulf of Mexico), and no mention of the Gulf of America, so that’s another easy win for OSM and CoMaps
minus-squareWarl0k3@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 天前Huh - very interesting! Does it display that way in both english / spanish?
minus-squarefaercol@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 天前Oh that’s an interesting question. Could be different. But no, just checked for French. It displays the same thing in both English and French
minus-squarePadit@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up2·6 天前In Germany it says “Golf von Mexiko (Gold von Amerika)”.
minus-squareWarl0k3@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·6 天前So weird, I wonder why it wasn’t doing that in arabic. God it’s not enough google is evil, they have to be obtuse about their shit while they do it.
