Comment Comment by hyperknot So Protomaps is a really full stack map platform, they are competing with kind of like 3-4 projects at once:- There is the Protomaps schema. It's competing with OpenMapTiles and Shortbread (https://shortbread-tiles.org/)- There is the Protomaps file format. It's competing with MBTiles and say Btrfs images in OpenFreeMap.- There is the Protomaps styles. It's competing with OSM Liberty and OSM Bright styles (https://github.com/maputnik/osm-liberty)- There is the way to host the tiles, on CloudFlare workers, range requests, etc. It's competing with MBTiles servers or OpenFreeMap's nginx servers.About getting abuse, how do you imagine it gets abuse? It's a static file showing OpenStreetMap data.I mean traffic is the only thing what can be a problem, but I think Hetzner should be good till 30-100 TB per server. parent hyperknot 2 years ago
