Show HN: OpenFreeMap – Open-Source Map Hosting
539 by hyperknot | 161 comments on Hacker News.
Hi HN, After 9 years of running my own OpenStreetMap tile server infra for MapHub ( https://ift.tt/USJ9kox ), I've open-sourced it and launched OpenFreeMap. You can either self-host or use our public instance. Everything is open-source, including the full production setup — there’s no 'open-core' model here. Check out the repo ( https://ift.tt/9b4xkgz ). The map data comes from OpenStreetMap. I also provide weekly full planet downloads both in Btrfs and MBTiles formats. I aim to cover the running costs of the public instance through donations. Looking forwards for your feedback.
