I really enjoy the exploration but I really wonder why people still use Mercator for data viz? Eg Greenland is not the size of Africa...

I can't get the vector basemap to render in QGIS properly with any other projection. I love using EPSG:3301 for Europe, etc.. but loads of strange things happen. Even 4326 is an issue.
