Overture Maps Foundation Releases General Availability of Its Open Maps Datasets

> if you want access you have to pay to get access

Do you? Did you try https://docs.overturemaps.org/getting-data/ ? (I didn't, yet, so I don't know; for now, I'm happy with daylightmap, but that is going to sunset).

The whole point of the project is to make this data free rather than $20+ dollars per 1000 API requests. You don't have to become a member to get the data. The membership is just if you want to sponsor Overture Maps and to contribute to decision making or data ingestion.

Being on Windows also doesn't matter. You can still download some or all of the data and host it on your machine.
