My opinion about Mapcomplete after 1,2k edits most with pictures.

After a few sporadic edits i realised that Mapcomplete offers a new dimension of mapping. I feel like the beginning of OSM. Almost at every corner its possible to upload pictures=information. No pictures need to be boring. Neither the clock on the building, nor the bench with a view or bicycle parking with oldtown in background. Additionally add some details. www.mapcomplete.org

@SeeandMap A potential longer term problem is the fragmentation - StreetComplete has its own picture storage, MapComplete it's own...
Would it make sense to have that as a central function?

Of course, that would have many challenges and risks of its own.

@richlv

I thought the images in Streetcomplete were deleted when the note was edited.

@SeeandMap I've heard so too, they are rather transient. Checking the images later could be helpful longer term, and perhaps some centralised approach could help.
