Now wait for someone to buy this and shut it down like they did Dark Sky.

Not gonna happen, Microsoft wanted to buy them in the past, owner/dev is creator of seznam.cz, one of few search engines with own tech, which for years had more users than Google in CZ.

When Microsoft aimed for Bing to be better than Google, they've actually flew to CZ and asked the seznam.cz CEO to sell his company to them, he said no :D

The Czech tech sector is rather interesting. They have lots of local services that are seriously competitive with their international counterparts. Mapy.cz is an aggressively good openstreetmap interface

Hope that doesn't happen :( I miss dark sky: https://nightingaledvs.com/dark-sky-weather-data-viz/
