There should, IMO, be a general purpose UK styled rendering on the front page of https://osmuk.org/

There is/was a discussion about a "UK-centric" map for OSM UK, some of which was below https://www.loomio.org/g/R8DGJMfk/openstreetmap-uk-project-map .  It didn't really go anywhere - what was missing was not good ideas, but the willingness to invest the effort to make it happen (and I include myself in that).

Personally, I'm not convinced that a "map heavy" front page for https://osmuk.org/ would be better than what exists at the moment (but then I also think that https://www.openstreetmap.de/ is a better "front page for the project" than https://www.openstreetmap.org ), but it's perfectly possible to create a UK-centric map (as Jerry's already mentioned, various examples exist, including https://map.atownsend.org.uk ).  If anyone wants to add anything new there, follow the links from the top of the page to github and make suggestions/changes there.

As for the OSM Carto style on https://www.openstreetmap.org as being "the OSM map style that most people see", I suspect it's actually way down the list, below the OSM-based, Mapbox-created styles used by e.g. Facebook et al., and Apple's map styles.

Best Regards,

Andy
