Comment on Immich relies on a third-party service that seems shady to me
Zwiebel@feddit.org 1 month agoTBF osm tile servers have the task of providing immediate feedback to the mappers editing osm. The immich map doesn’t need to update live, redrawing each tile like once a month would be fine

A static PNG tile database for world.osm is even larger. Without a solid vector tile solution, this is the most efficient data format for disk space.
Also, there’s a post render CDN cache in front of the rendering layer to offset load, plus there’s I think some internal caching in renderd. It’s a pretty complex machine, but databases of the world are in fact huge.

You could probably save a lot of space by throwing out the higher zoom levels. Level 16 or 17 should be plenty to mark where a photo was taken
