In less than a week from today, every news outlets will talk about the GNOME 3.22 desktop for GNU/Linux distributions, which promises, as expected, to be the most advanced and feature-full release ever announced. Of course, GNOME 3.22 will update all of its core components and applications, including Maps. As you might know, GNOME Maps had a major issue a couple of months ago, as it lost access to its map tile service, MapQuest, which disabled their free feed, but things were back to normal in a few weeks from the unexpected incident. This means that support for a new map tile service, namely Mapbox, will the number one feature.
