It is not about hating Apple maps. It is about Apple getting serious on fixing it and get back to being about providing the best UX.

I just do not get why things changed such that it is acceptable for Apple to provide second rated UX.

Same with Siri.

You make it sound as if they can just redirect 100 programmers for a few months and it'll instantly be better. The link you originally shared in that top-level comment goes on to show why Google's maps are so much better than Apples and it's not just a matter of UX design.
It has been years and they have a ton of money. See no reason why Apple still offers an inferrior UX.

UX is user experience. So me being able to just say a business name and the app tell me if I can get there before close and send me to the actual place is UX.

Versus having to use addresses in Apple Maps to get it to be accurate and even then not so much.
