See discussion here: https://github.com/react-native-mapbox-gl/maps/pull/1222

TL;DR:

Mapbox v10 is great
Mapbox stopped supporting react-native in 2019
Upgrading react-native-mapbox-gl to Mapbox v10 takes effort: estimated at 150 hours
More and more users are using the official Mapbox SDK through react-native-mapbox-gl

Any chance Mapbox could help out with engineering effort or financial aid so that @mfazekas can get the upgrade done?

Some usage statistics to quantify this:

@mvanroon can we find some time for a call to determine what this would take? I'm tlee (at) mapbox (dot) com -- please send me an email so we can explore the possibility.
