I'm trying to tag my photo locations. I know that we can now use the map, but the location search is still pretty bad.
As an example, i'm trying to tag some photos in Brooklyn, New York, NY. This is what searching for Brooklyn gives me:

There are dozens of results, and none of them have any sort of description. So, it's extemely hard to know which one is the right one - Maybe one of them is a city called Brooklyn in a completely different state or even country.

In contrast, this is what searching for "Brooklyn" in google maps shows:

You can clearly see which one is in NYC.

This location search is using Immich locations and I also find them weird.

I've developed a better search using OpenStreetMap in #92 - waiting for it to be approved by @varun-raj.

Hi Guys, I'm looking to bring in optional Google maps integration for more finer search. Whats your thoughts on this?

@varun-raj take a look at #92 and please approve it. As it does a very fine search using OpenStreetMap.

I would keep Google out..
