Hi!

I did't know that service, thanks. Many things mentioned in the article are also on that map. But some information is missing that I find useful (mostly Places of Interest), see the attached screenshot with the same bounding box as the cover photo of this post.

It only exists since september, there is still lot to improve.
For places of interest I guess they can viewed in higher zoom.
If you wish you can create tickets for your requirements on github, we will try to solve them.

I think the exact issue is outlined in github.com/cyclosm/cyclosm-cartocs...

Print map styles are very different from screen oriented map styles. To print maps, nothing can beat a dedicated map style. However, CyclOSM can be used as a "good enough" approach to generate printed maps.

Viewing map content using a web browser is very different than using a printed paper map.

If I find issues for the web version I will create issues in Github.
