2024: The year of the OpenStreetMap vector maps
You can download an extract of your country from Geofabrik, run it through Tilemaker (https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker) to get a nice mbtiles file, and then use the built-in Ruby server to give you something you can load in your web-browser locally.

How The Post is replacing Mapbox with open source solutions
I ran into this solution last week on HN and decided to give it a try. The pipeline that got me up and running was geofabrik osm.pbf[0] downloads, pass those into tilemaker[1] to create mbtiles, and then pass those into pmtiles[2] to make the pmtiles.

Can I render tiles directly from osm.pbf data without a database?
If you do vector tiles instead of raster, you could use tilemaker: https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker

Offline imagery from another navigation apps.
Try to convert by GDAL files from geofabrik, ogr2ogr make my laptop hurt, but not tiles. Found tilemaker, looks better, but i get only markers, not images.

.osm file on Android
MBTiles is also a format that is supported more and more, something like tilemaker can help you with that. https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker

Are there any vector MBTiles provider apart from Maptiler?
I'm trying to build offline maps for my app and I've figured out the app part. Now all thats left is getting the MBTiles file for all regions of the world and host it on my own somewhere. I tried to generate these files myself using [tilemaker](https://github.com/systemed/tilemaker) but I soon realised that with my limited computing power it would take forever to process 50GB worth of files for the entire planet.

2024: The year of the OpenStreetMap vector maps
Slightly offtopic
I have OsmAnd ( https://github.com/osmandapp/OsmAnd ) on my phone, download the basemaps, download my (small) country data (both sourced from open street maps), and with an app + ~1GB of data, I get the maps and full navigation within my country, POIs, etc., and can add other countries when needed.
Is there something similar for a PC? I can download data from open street maps, but then I need postgres, postgis, a tile server and styles and apache running just to generate the tiles. Is there anything portable (short of running osmand in an android virtualbox) for offline navigation on a linux pc? QGIS can display vectors, but I wasn't able to easily style the data... navigation is a no-go there too. anything else?

"I'm in this picture and I don't like it"
OsmAnd works for me. I am looking to get off Google, so I try to retire anything that is not on F-Droid. OsmAnd is a independent project ( osmand.net ) that uses the data you can also access under www.openstreetmap.org . The App is not perfect and sometimes it calls for the wrong action, for example when a road is just taking a steep turn it might ask for you to turn onto a different road which is actually the same every now and then. Also Google uses the location data of it's users to change routes depending on congestion afaik. Don't expect that from OsmAnd.

replacing stock apps with FOSS alternatives..
Organic Maps & OsmAnd~ are the classic map alternatives but i don't use them.

Improving your online privacy: An update
Regarding usage of OpenStreetMap over Google Maps - assuming we're talking mobile usage - you might give OSMAnd[0] a try. I've been using it exclusively on a Pixel loaded with GrapheneOS for a few months now. I would never consider going back to GMaps and I don't feel that I've lost anything either.

Organic Maps
OSMAnd tracks users using a secret supercookie by default because the developer wants metrics. This is done without consent. The defensiveness of the developer with regards to such unethical tracking means that I will never use any software they ever release.
