do a search for Strava on social media images, on twitter as examples:

só either everyone crops the image or there's something wrong.
following your mindset, we should blame the map provider (Mapbox) and not
the company that uses the maos. Does this apply to Facebook too? As Mapbox
is a corporate member of OSMF and several employees of theirs are members
of board or working groups, that shouldn't be to hard to fix the lack of
attribution, right?
