Also consider this when sending coordinates to a 3rd party service (for example when reverse geocoding). You don't need to send them an 8+ digit coordinate, and there's a slight chance of supplying what is effectively uniquely identifying information if you do.

If you are making a webmap of Ukraine and need a searchbox for Ukranian cities, addresses, POIs, etc, we will provide it for free. Given the magnitude of what's happening today, it feels like such a small thing, but it's what we can do, so we'll do it. hello@geocode.earth.

Finding the right balance between giving back to open source and open data while growing a for-profit business has probably been the most challenging and rewarding part of this whole adventure. We've learned a lot, even as the open source landscape has changed dramatically.
