it's more like an inquiry. can I host my own version of algolia places? since it's with an MIT license and it's officially abandoned from the official algolia services website?

The places.js library is an MIT license project, so feel free to do whatever you want with it! (in compliance with the license of course) However the ingestion pipeline for Places is not public and not under MIT license, and we have no plans to release it to the public AFAIK. You can create your own ingestion pipeline for OpenStreetMap and use/tweak your fork places.js to use your data and data server (I personally would love to see that). This would not be a legal issue.

Dear jonthan, Do you have any tips and rexommendation to get started to prepare ingeation pipeline? Would love to know more details on how algolia used to do it? Isbthis related to appid which is required by places.js?

I would recommend looking into self-hosting a Nominatim instance, and tweak it to adapt it to your needs: https://github.com/osm-search/Nominatim It's not how we do it internally, but they do a lot of heavy lifting and it's probably the best solution if you want to build your own ingestion pipeline because they will give you a database with all the addresses in OSM 🙂
