Self Hosting a Google Maps Alternative with OpenStreetMap
Thanks for this. I remember using MVTs on HTML Canvas with Leaflet via plugin way back in 2017.[1] It wasn't perfect, but browser rendering has definitely been the bigger issue than anything with Leaflet.

Microsoft Joins the MapLibre Sponsorship Program
At my day job we’re heavily invested in Leaflet for historical reasons, but toward the end of last year added Maplibre as a layer on top of it via the excellent https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-gl-leaflet. This has allowed us to begin transitioning gradually instead of being forced to jump all at once.
It’s hard to beat the simplicity of Leaflet, but neither it nor OpenLayers can handle Mapbox Vector Tiles in a performant enough manner, so Maplibre is the future for us.

Which open source/free alternatives are there to open layers for rendering vector tiles in the browser?
On the Leaflet front, if you look at the plugins list, you'll see Leaflet.VectorGrid (made a long time ago by yours truly). And if you search for a bit, you'll find maplibre-gl-leaflet, which places a Maplibre instance inside a Leaflet map pane.

How The Post is replacing Mapbox with open source solutions
https://github.com/maplibre/maplibre-gl-leaflet exists!
It's not perfect, and you don't see the full benefit of a WebGL renderer, but if you want to keep using a Leaflet API, it's great.

Self Hosting a Google Maps Alternative with OpenStreetMap
Seems like MapTiler is maintaining an open source full stack vector alternative, and OpenLayers[0] looks good as well, so maybe it's time for legacy libraries to add vector support, or for users to switch libraries? There's even bindings from Maplibre GL to Leaflet [1].
I at least would find it interesting to see the two compared by someone other than me ;).
