#maplibrejs afficionados: Any way around this messy labeling? (numbers 32, 62, and 50) I'm thinking there isn't, as the label layer is on top of the cluster layer, and you can actually see the exact same behavior in the official docs example: maplibre.org/maplibre-gl-...
snippet of map interface with clusters, some of which overlap. in some obvious cases, the labels from one cluster that is being overlapped by another are shown on top of the overlapping cluster.
