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)

How do you deal with maps and navigation?
I found https://www.qwant.com/maps pretty decent and comparable to Google Maps, especially for the ease to switch between pedestrian/biking/car directions. They don't have an app though.

The Bitcoin.com Wallet no longer includes the Bitcoin map.
https://www.qwant.com/maps nice front-end. https://openstreetmap.org The boring techy website. https://www.where2.cash Simple web-app for BCH merchants.

How to use DDG Maps?
It is a reduced version of Apple Maps, so only looking and navigation, unfortunatelly. I'd recommend Qwant Maps for that.

OpenStreepMap 2012 vs. 2022
If you go to "edit" mode on the openstreetmap.org website, you'll see aerial/satellite imagery too, licensed for free from bing and others. AFAIK, that license is only for editors, thus they can't have it on the main website (and that wouldn't be a showcase of OSM data anyway).
I agree it's a bit of a shame that the openstreetmap.org doesn't do a better job of showcasing the wealth of data, and it could be more user friendly. There are a lot of other websites that provide the same data, represented differently. https://osmand.net/map for instance. https://www.qwant.com/maps has vector maps and is quite good too!
