That's cool but why are they registered in Estonia
There's a ton of great developers from that first world EU regulated country.
I can't tell of you are joking
I don't think they're joking. What concerns you about Estonia?
I've just never heard of it until now
It's maybe because Estonia has the best digital system for digital residents and companies. It's so easy to manage compared to other countries' alternatives
While the current maps.me devs are in Cyprus, which is technically one of the fronts for most Russian companies serving international customers.
Well I avoid Russia and China out of a matter of policy.
Ugh forget about maps.me. the app is such a disaster and full of crap
Because Estonia had a visionary government and high digital literacy
