Export Just Paths and Just buildings
The developer may be willing to add this as an option if you request this on the github repo. As they already have a "no buildings" option it might be an easy thing to add?

pelias VS photon - a user suggested alternative
2 projects | 15 Nov 2023
Photon by Komoot is also using Elasticsearch for validating addresses and locations.

Autocomplete address from google places and mapbox seem to be extremely expensive. Is there any other good alternatives?
Alternatively, you could run your own Photon API: https://github.com/komoot/photon

The New GraphHopper Maps Route Planner
Open Source. The routing server is open source too and geocoding too.
- What is the easiest way to deploy OSM on the premise? like nominatim.openstreetmap.org, but offline version.

GraphHopper Routing Engine - Open Source Route Planning
To fully self-host a route planner (e.g. a "Google Maps" equivalent) you need GraphHopper for the routing and two other parts: you also need some visualization aka "maps" (e.g. with OpenMapTiles) and you need the address search (e.g. with Photon).

PSA: Use Acastus-Photon for better search for maps apps like OsmAnd
Acastus-Photon is an Android app that allows you to search up any address or point of interest on OpenStreetMaps and open it in OsmAnd or any other maps app. It relies on photon as it's open-source backend server (provides elasticsearch for OSM), so you can either use a public instance or self-host. This allows you to have search functionality as powerful as Google Maps whilst being able to use solely open-source software instead.
- OsmAnd~ address finding is terrible, copy and pasting lat and long is inconvenient, any alternatives that also respect your privacy?
