I explored the data quality of the generated edge network in the legacy version vs the latest version... Woah!! 🤩 It's so much better now!
This post has my initial findings. I'm going to spend some time this week digging in further in Colorado where I actually know the roads!

The latest PgOSM Flex image now has osm2pgsql 2.0.0. Here's the quick start if you haven't tried PgOSM Flex yet!
Initial version of Windows instructions for PgOSM Flex are live! Hopefully this helps some folks out there.
Huge shout out to the osm2pgsql devs! Connection volume to Postgres had gotten a bit awkward with the Flex styles when they're used the way PgOSM Flex does. Replication with the default layerset previously used 207 connections! 🤯
The same step only uses 17 now!! 🎉 (:latest on Docker Hub updated)
Details and before/after charts are in the comments of the PR for the curious 🤓

This PR started by testing osm2pgsql-dev/osm2pgsql#2134. Those results were encouraging and is now this is a PR addressing a couple other minor improvements. Uses latest osm2pgsql, significantly ...
pgBouncer is being added to PgOSM Flex! This should help the connection load with --append workloads
It is a WIP but I *think* it is functional! Testing and feedback welcome.
This finally became possible b/c pgBouncer added support for prepared statements 🤓
