osm-bright

A few things: - A data source for vector tiles; there's a lot of options: https://stadiamaps.com (my company), https://maptiler.com/ & https://jawg.io (other core contributing companies), among others. - A style that matches. I'm not aware of an open source style that closely mirrors OSM's style using MapLibre GL Styles (also forked from Mapbox). OSM Bright is pretty close: https://github.com/mapbox/osm-bright / https://github.com/openmaptiles/osm-bright-gl-style.

I wish someone would have recommended him to tweak one of many available OSM styles in TileMill. He also could have exported the layer in any tile shape, projection, and resolution using mapnik. You can even render to vector trivially, which comes in very handy for any printable pdfs. https://github.com/mapbox/osm-bright https://github.com/mapnik/mapnik/wiki/MapnikRenderers

Keep in mind that OpenStreetMap is a data project, not a maps.google.com replacement project. There are plenty of other ways to look at OSM data. https://tiles.mapbox.com/newmap and http://maps.cloudmade.com/editor let you style the data yourself, http://open.mapquest.com/ lets you route and search across it. https://github.com/mapbox/osm-bright is a good start at building your own style. http://osmbuildings.com/ uses CSS to draw 3D buildings based on OSM data. http://bl.ocks.org/migurski/5130639 renders it in your browser with WebGL. The tiles shown at openstreetmap.org are meant as a tool for mappers to help with mapping and are not our product.
