Is there a Google maps proxy app? (Like startpage but for maps) (lemmy.world)

It saddens me to admit, but google maps is by far the best maps app, ig all that stalking does come in handy. OSM just doesn't have nearly as much data or information about certain places

So I was thinking, if you can proxy google's search results via something like startpage, is there an app that can do the same for google maps? As of now I've yet to find one
