Hi! Maintainer of Pelias here and co-founder of Geocode Earth where we continue to fund Pelias development through our SaaS and consulting. You need to bring Who's on First data in to support administrative areas, it won't use admin areas from OSM. This is a bit of a technical choice (WOF has some nice features like stable IDs and a rich hierarchy, and a data format that's much easier to work with), but also the result of the Who's on First project and Pelias being developed together while we were at Mapzen. Don't hesitate to reach out to us if you need help getting things set up.

Is there a contact point you'd prefer me to use for reaching out? I'm pretty sure I'm using WOF for bringing up Pelias but it's entirely possible I'm configuring things wrong. I'm also having a lot of trouble getting good performance out of the viewport biasing on the autocomplete endpoint (`focus.point`). Photon has `location_bias_scale` which allowed me to do very strong viewport biasing for zoomed-in queries and eliminate it almost entirely when zoomed out. Is this something that could be added? I don't mind doing a bit of legwork if need be. This is important enough that I'm willing to throw a few weeks at implementing it. The pelias.json for this instance is at: https://publicdata.ellenhp.workers.dev/planet-v1.16.pelias.json https://publicdata.ellenhp.workers.dev/planet-v1.16.pelias.j... I'll go double check that the placeholder container is operating correctly, actually. :)
