      Hello Windy Team,

      First of all, thank you for the excellent weather visualization platform.
      I am using the Windy map both on the main website and via the Windy API / Plugins API.

      I would like to suggest a small but important usability improvement:

      Please display major city names by default on the initial map view, not only after zooming in.

      On windy.com, city labels already exist internally, but on the initial screen they are often hidden.
      This makes orientation more difficult, especially when viewing temperature or precipitation layers on large monitors or TV-sized displays.

      From the perspective of Plugins API users:

      Recreating city labels manually with Leaflet is possible,

      but the visual quality, resolution, and integration are noticeably inferior to the native Windy city label layer.

      This appears to be an API limitation rather than a client-side issue.

      This request is not about adding new data, but about default visibility of an existing layer, which would significantly improve clarity and accessibility for many users.

      Thank you for considering this suggestion, and thank you again for such a great service.

      Best regards,
      전영도
