Comic Strips is a community for those who love comic stories.
The rules are simple:
- The post can be a single image, an image gallery, or a link to a specific comic hosted on another site (the author's website, for instance).
- The comic must be a complete story.
- If it is an external link, it must be to a specific story, not to the root of the site.
- You may post comics from others or your own.
- If you are posting a comic of your own, a maximum of one per week is allowed (I know, your comics are great, but this rule helps avoid spam).
- The comic can be in any language, but if it's not in English, OP must include an English translation in the post's 'body' field (note: you don't need to select a specific language when posting a comic).
- Politeness.
- AI-generated comics aren't allowed.
- Adult content is not allowed. This community aims to be fun for people of all ages.

Does it still count if you use a maps app in the same way, not necessarily utilizing the navigation feature of the app?
I learned how to read a map in the early 2000s when I delivered flowers on Mother's Day for some quick money as a teenager, right before GPS apps became ubiquitous. I can usually figure out a route simply by looking at the map in the app for a second or three to locate the major cross-streets.
