That's all well and good for people who enjoy doing that. But I'm not interested, and I suspect a lot of other people aren't interested.
And you can turn it around and say, "Well then it's your own fault OSM isn't better," but the fact of the matter is, I don't care, and I'll just use Google Maps, or Apple's maps, or some other map that has the info.
I like OSM, and I think it's neat, but trying to guilt people into helping out is going to turn away more people than it's going to bring in.
- fuck_google 12y agoWhy should OSM even try to attract users that don't bring in any value by contributing?
- maxerickson 12y agoOSM shouldn't worry too much about those users. If Telenav is attracting them, getting them to pay money and using some of that money to improve OSM, the community probably shouldn't be too hostile to honest evaluations from those people.
