I would like you to stop favorizing Tesla

Brands are listed in alphabetical order, but Tesla is the first, can you change that?
Also, only Tesla chargers have different icon on the map, why are you treating them differently? If this is about charger not being compatible, why you show it on a map anyway?
I don't like what Musk is doing and I don't like that you're giving him additional support. I don't want to contribute to that by using your app.

I think it is a good design - considering UI design this is definitely how I'll design - most used cars first. That makes more sense assuming it would be easier for the vast majority to select a vehicle.
And it must keep changing, that is the moment the most used cars on ABRP changes to something else (say Polestar), then bring Polestar to the top.
As with charger icons, I would say it would be good to show an icon for each charger with it's own brand. However, I do understand the concept of showing Tesla charger with special icons since Tesla is virtually the only brand with that big charger network by the car company, and Tesla users would definitely prefer Tesla supercharger since it can talk to the car and charge the car with more factors considered. I believe ABRP will favour other charger icons when they are favoured by a brand too.
It is always good to appreciate the good - and so far I don't see any other charge provider being consistent and providing quality charge networks with minimal outage. So it is worth supporting unless someone beats them to it.

Hi,
all the Tesla chargers we show, can be used as public charger, because they opened up. If you do not want to see them or use them, you can avoid them in the charger settings. This will also apply to the region chargers on the map.
Tesla is still one of the most popular manufacturers used in our app, that is the only reason why it is at the top. We will however reconsider this and discuss internally, if this should still be done in the future.
