    <p>OK, I got it,</p>
    <p>You have to open another layer with a projection first, e.g.
      South African outline or something.</p>
    <p>Then you add the XYZ tiles. If you start a new project with only
      the XYZ tiles then they don't show, even if you zoom to layer...I
      think this is a projection issue (and the {-y}).</p>
    <p>Maybe something worth knowing!</p>

Make sure the last bit of the URL is correct...

NOTE the {-y} not {y}

The reason for the difference is the TMS for the Namibian use top left
origin (more commonly known as XYZ), while the South African use
bottom left origin.

I do plan on fixing the South Africa ones to use the XYZ standard
format at a later stage, but low priority at the moment.

Kind regards,

Grant

Thank you Tim,

The Namibia XYZ works perfectly but the South Africa does not show anything...empty. I am on Ubuntu 18.04 and QGIS 3.4.3.

Thanks for your help.
