Ah, would get messy with downloaded regions not meshing with each other... Would not want that.

Verbosity: I think default setting was not that verbose
No, I've seen (and done...) worse

Desktop: these days you could go for PM and the server on the desktop as well. There are flatpaks available for it at flathub.
That's brilliant! Just checked Flathub and will try it out. Is the map folder managed by the server "self-contained"/"portable"?

I mean, can I download my selected regions once, and then just copy the complete folder to boostrap other devices? (Being careful to first shut down the servers, of course.) Because that would be much faster than doing it on the Xperia.

PS: was easy to look into it, since the reporting was very good!
I know what it's like to get "just doesn't work" reports... So I try to provide as much detail as I can.
