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 ;).

Looking for nicely styled maps
Or maybe you want to create your own unique style? The Maputnik map style editor has some free styles to get you started.

How The Post is replacing Mapbox with open source solutions
Use docker compose to start an nginx and maptiler/tileserver-gl. Use an nginx config to send requests upstream to tileserver and cache.
Download a region file from maptiler, or make one.
That's it.
It's about 2h work, using certbot for certificates.
If you want to create your own styles, it's slightly more fiddly, but essentially it's https://maputnik.github.io/editor/#0.41/0/0

Viewing a Maputnik style on Android - Help Wanted.
I've made a map style in Maputnik. It picks up OSM tags to graphically represent road surfaces for gravel riding and bike touring. It's primarily for personal use.

Is there any map generator that can use Google maps as template for map generation?
They linked this tool https://github.com/maputnik/editor where you can make your own style for Mapbox. :)
