i would be in a minority here but i use osmand+ on my phone. in my city, openstreetmaps is still in its infancy relatively speaking so what i do is, if i go somewhere and i see problem spots, wrong turn or missing road or a point, intersection or something. I just mark it and once home, i update the map for everyone.
while this might not be for everyone. It is time consuming for me but i find this a good exercise for myself.
i use streetcomplete (android app) often to update the streets and that is a good feature of openstreetmaps
- toastal 5y ago100% this spirit. I like how I can take an active role in my community helping with this kinda stuff. I ask business owners all sorts of missing details you can't add to the other maps. Some people have laughed when my maps are appear empty in some places, but when I show them how easy it was to meaningfully contribute and the aforementioned details, I hear comments of jealousy.
- 2Gkashmiri 5y agoSame thing. Marketting plays a big role. Everyone around me uses Google maps because why not? I showed a relative about offline tracks and camping and route mapping. He's like "well I can offline save Google maps". I want to slowly build a robust network.
