Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Protomaps – A free and open source map of the world
I've been using TileServer GL for a while and it looks like there is support for pmtiles coming soon.

Serverless maps at 1/700 the cost of Google Maps API
Firstly, I just want to say thanks for the reply, but more so thanks for your work, its moving opensource mapping forward.
In my work we are looking at switching from mbtiles hosted with tilserver-gl(https://github.com/maptiler/tileserver-gl) to pmtiles to remove a server process. But we we self host already and we are already using maplibre-gl 2.
I can see why the implementation in the blog post would be better for high traffic deployments (ours isn't). It also points out to me I don't understand how a CDN would handle range request for hosting the pmtiles file directly, it probably doesn't?
As far as the mapbox stuff,in my mind, pmtiles is a direct competitor (successor) to the mbtiles format, which was a revolution in comparison to everything that came before it. A successor I welcome because it makes it even easier for me as a developer to self host and not be dependent on a SaaS to run my maps.
The modern opensource map stack wouldn't exist without mapbox and I'm personally grateful to them for that. Most people who use pmtiles will use mapbox's opensource style spec to style them, and descendants of their open source code to render them. But as a developer now its an obvious choice to not use their services after years of using them.
However I'm not doing high traffic stuff and they never made much money off me anyway.

How The Post is replacing Mapbox with open source solutions
https://github.com/maptiler/tileserver-gl makes it really easy. I have a pretty simple pipeline set up to download an OSM extract, convert it to MBTiles, host it in CloudFlare, and render raster tiles with this software.

Does anyone know where to find the global raster set of buildings??
It's not raster directly, but you could use planetiler ( https://github.com/onthegomap/planetiler ) to build a full planet vector map . Then you could use something like TileServer-GL to server the vector map with a style. TileServer-gl ( https://github.com/maptiler/tileserver-gl) would provide a raster source that displays in the style you set on your vector map.

Offline Map Tiles
You could host something like tileserver-gl (https://github.com/maptiler/tileserver-gl) and use the pre-generated vector tiles from https://archive.org/details/osm-vector-mbtiles Add some map styles and you have your own offline map service. Here are some good starters for styles: https://github.com/openmaptiles/osm-bright-gl-style

Need help finding a server-compatible GPU
This server is intended to be a tile server, taking vector data and rendering it to rasterized tile images via tileserver-gl (which uses OpenGL)

There's a new map style on OpenStreetMap.org
Have been using https://opentopomap.org for this for a while, and depending on what you're looking for it still has some advantages: does show the numbers on all height lines (osm only does the 50m one in my area for some reason, leaving you to guess whether the next one is 40m or 60m since that is not always obvious - seems like a key thing for a topographic map), does show the house numbers.

Are there any good digital atlases?
For example OpenTopoMap looks very similar to most maps that were in my school atlas. I like the MapTiler renderings too.

I need some help creating a map with some layers
https://brouter.damsy.net/ The topo map is provided by https://opentopomap.org/ Alternatively, if you have an OSM account, you can go into edit mode on OSM website and drag GPX traces into the window to display them. You can't get elevation profile this way but you can use topographic map background or a better range of satellite imagery, and you can use Bing imagery without an API key.

Eduard: Swiss-Style Relief Shading for Maps Using Machine Learning
The chances of the problem not having being already tackled with deterministic algorithms is the thinnest - and in fact, yes, there do exist tools, as expected.
See the sections about 'hillshade' at the OpenTopoMap "from scratch" instructions, at https://github.com/der-stefan/OpenTopoMap/blob/master/mapnik...

How to generate MBTiles covering a shape and not a rectangular extent?
I have generated and hosted locally an instance of OpenTopoMap covering South America. Now I want to create a set of MBTiles for each individual country. Using the Raster tools -> Generate XYZ tiles (MBTiles) I can do that for a rectangular extent (drawn on map or calculated from layer). Can I do it for an irregular shape? I downloaded a .shp file for Argentina, for example - https://i.imgur.com/3IGJ88A.png
What are some alternatives?
TileServer PHP - MBTiles and MapTiler folder hosting with TileJSON, OGC WMTS, UTFGrid interaction and web interface. QGIS & ESRI ArcGIS compatible. Runs on any Apache+PHP webhosting. MapBox Studio Vector Tiles hosting.
