Mapbox

Mapbox vs self-hosted tiles: which is better for privacy and latency?

The question is about Mapbox .

Answer:

Self-hosted tiles outshine Mapbox for privacy and low latency. Hosting your own gives total control over user data (preventing third-party access) and allows maps to run close to your network, reducing latency compared with third-party cloud solutions. Mapbox is easier but requires sending user map data to Mapbox’s servers.
