I am not sure how I feel about this one. It is not prominent enough

screen

but unlike Mapbox trickery it is visible immediately, there are no attempts to mislead user and it fits other parts of the interface.

Yes, it is not properly visible - but their entire interface suffers from the same problem. So I would not treat it as an attempt to mislead users.

To be clear: I am not treating it as sufficient attribution, just I am wondering whatever this case counts as egregious, prominent and case of a blatant disrespect. Sadly, there is a strong competition for that.

For comparison: example of misleading attribution from Mapbox (from their own documentation about attribution at https://docs.mapbox.com/help/how-mapbox-works/attribution/#mapbox-maps-sdk-for-ios )

Note: this is on desktop. I still need to test windy.com on mobile

And I was happy too soon. There is nothing even close to a proper attribution on mobile.
