Thanks for the note. I hear you on the zoom pain. What would be your preferred means of zooming?

  Pinch zoom is the preferred method, it just needs to zoom at a usable (much faster) pace. I have no idea what input events zooming generates. Perhaps an option in the URL could be used to turn on a log of input events that people can copy/paste and submit back to you, so you can get a sense of what events are coming from various devices and input methods without having to find devices to try them all yourself. Plenty of map sites have spent years broken on Macs, not handling smooth pinch-zoom or Magic Mouse smooth scroll wheel events. A slight 3mm movement of a finger going from fully zoomed in street view to fully zoomed out planet view. I'm assuming every micro-movement event is treated as a Windows scroll wheel event where you expect to move a decent chunk on each event. However you're treating zoom inputs, you've got the opposite effect. A full zoom motion barely does anything.

  Just noticed you also support scroll to zoom, and it works at a decent speed.

    I’m glad you noticed. I’ll still look into pinch zoom for ya regardless
