Quick question: With Maps gone, is there no longer an easy way to direct folks to public VPS locations?

If you’re referring to a maps-like method of directing users to VPS Locations then the best course of action would be to use an alternative such as MapBox as we would no longer have this kind of navigation capability with the Maps SDK reaching its end of life
