You find you can just stare at maps for ages and ages?

If someone has one on the wall I'm immediately hypnotised.

haha i grew up with one of those big national geographic maps on my wall and it has a special place in my heart

my favorite bit of today's launch is the gallery, where you can stare away! https://felt.com/gallery

Looks beautiful! Trying to think up ways that real estate agents or brokers could use this, but all of the examples seem to be on a much larger scale like regions or states, as opposed to neighborhoods or small cities. Do you have any users doing fascinating things for real estate customers/agents/brokers?

I've tried to get a set of vector tiles (`.pbf.json` generated with tippecanoe) working as a background, but the docs don't specify if vector tiles are accepted, and all the examples are raster tiles.

Can you use vector tiles as a custom background? If so, how, and are there limits on format support?

right now just external raster tiles, but vector tiles is on the roadmap!
