Yeah, DuckDB showing up with geospatial support is pretty wild. It’s cool seeing a tool that’s simple to use but still handles serious data work—makes geo stuff way more accessible for folks who aren’t deep into GIS. Definitely feels like it’s opening the door for more devs to mess with spatial data.
