Is it possible to have high quality printed maps from mapbox/maplibre...of course it is! If you want to get inspired for your next open source project, come check out my talk on Wednesday at #FOSS4GNA on one city's ongoing transition to an open source GIS solution.

this is how easily facts can be spun - using the term "deeply divided" when the percentages are 60/40 is a complete joke - "Americans are deeply divided on Donald Trump. A recent Reuters/Ipsos poll found that only 40% approved of his performance as president, while 58% disapproved." from the #bbc

Ever since X became a dumpster fire and moving to bsky I still have not found that awesome feed that once scrolled across my phone in the prime days of twitter, beautiful maps and trending news...maybe I'm just not following the right people or social media or people's use of it has just changed 🤷

what's possible on a $5 4 core VPS? A lot actually: full-text search with #sqlite and fts5, lightning fast vector tiles with mbtiles, and decent performance with vector tiles generated on-the-fly via #flatgeobuf #geopackage easily increased with double the cores #gis #gischat

Flatgeobuf on-demand vector tiling performance on a $5 4-core server *almost* good enough. The FGB process uses http range requests with minimal latency as the data host is the web server not a cloud bucket. More/faster server cores (my m2 Mac) make it much more viable. #gis #gischat #webmaps #cng
