Yes I know what DuckDuckGo is. The comment also said:

> Apple Maps is available on the web

They're probably referring to https://developer.apple.com/documentation/mapkitjs which is what powers the DDG integration.

Anyway it is the case that the only way to browse Apple Maps via the web (AFAICT) is via an integration like DDG: https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-use-apple-maps-right-in...

So yeah saying it is available on the web feels a bit disingenuous, but it is, kind of, indirectly.

Ah, that is bizarre. But I've never understood Apple. Thanks for explaining.
