- Aachen 2y agoThe joke is that you can already download it for free, no donation or bandwidth reimbursement needed https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Planet.osm I guess since it's posted to osm.town Mastodon, this is assumed to be known. Was surprised to see it without context here on HN; I can understand the confusion. Apparently most people here are already aware that one can download the full OpenStreetMap data without scraping
