Precision of between vector tiles and geojson

I used tippecanoe to generate the vector tiles based on OSM road layer, but there is an offset between vector tiles in mbtiles and geojson displayed in QGIS at 1:50 or larger scale. So my first question is: Is this because of floating point operations?

1:50

1:25

1:12

If everything is consistently above and to the left of where it should be, this is probably the rounding-vs-truncation problem that I just fixed in https://github.com/felt/tippecanoe/pull/60.

@e-n-f I found this repository (Mapbox's) following some tutorials, but it seems that this one is discontinued and the current active repo of the project is the one in Felt's account. Is this correct?

No one has been maintaining the Mapbox Tippecanoe repo for the last few years. I now work at Felt rather than Mapbox and am actively maintaining https://github.com/felt/tippecanoe.
