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.

- Shade Map Pro

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)

Does anyone know where to find the global raster set of buildings??
I believe you're looking for the microsoft footprints. They're hosted on github as geojsons. You can download individual states and countries. Here's the US: https://github.com/microsoft/USBuildingFootprints

[OC] The footprint of every building in Chicagoland
Microsoft is good for building footprints, but a little old. I think that's was Illinois' data is based on.

I'm a new GIS student. Does anyone know where I can find shapefiles for high-rise buildings in American cities?
https://github.com/microsoft/USBuildingFootprints but then combining with some height data : https://www.arcgis.com/home/item.html?id=3b0b8cf27ffb49e2a2c8370f9806f267

ArcGIS REST SERVICE
When looking for some specific features shapefiles like parcels, buildings,..etc. you usually end up with either nothing, partial information (like trying to query building with specific types of stages in OSMNX) or with shapefiles that lack an attribute table ( this link for example you can download buildings foot prints for almost all the cities around the world but the ones in the ME lack attribute table: GitHub - microsoft/USBuildingFootprints: Computer generated building footprints for the United States ).

Simheaven X-Plane 12 and major updates
Simheaven also updated X-America few weeks ago. It now included open source Microsoft Footprint https://github.com/microsoft/USBuildingFootprints
