mfs be like "born too late to explore the world 😢" does openstreetmap look complete to you? get working
@mochabeau use StreetComplete for this! It shows little quest markers above locations that lack info and make it very easy to enter it
@privateger @mochabeau That app is so cool! How can you view the info that it adds, though? Can you see opening hours i.e. in OsmAnd?
@garbrys @mochabeau it submits it to OSM proper with your OSM account, so your data will make it into clients eventually
@privateger @mochabeau Been investigating a bit, the nicest app that uses OSM data seems to be MAPS.ME. Unlike OsmAnd and Magic Earth, it can give me a route to a place with more than one public transport segment. Hope more people start using StreetComplete too, it really is super simple and it's very smooth in the hands.

@garbrys there are also Organic Maps and CoMaps - forks of MAPS.ME. i don't know how well the public transport routing works however, as they all seem to lack support for Moscow's public transport

@privateger @mochabeau

@risc @privateger @mochabeau Organic Maps looks really cool. Public transport doesn't work for Buenos Aires either

@garbrys FYI CoMaps is a fork of Organic Maps that was created due to concerns with the project's management. also, it apparently has additional features.

@privateger @mochabeau

@garbrys Yes! things you add via StreetComplete are stored in the OSM database, which is what all the apps & websites use.
You can see it within minutes if you explore the raw OSM data (e.g. with Overpass or Postpass). Apps like OSMAnd might only update once a month or something

@privateger @mochabeau

@amapanda @garbrys @privateger @mochabeau OsmAnd also has much more frequent updates, available by supporting devs financially or mapping frequently :)

@garbrys @privateger @mochabeau

Des, you can view Opening hours in Osmand, tested for you.

@Elischeva91 @privateger @mochabeau Thanks. Turns out that most of the places around me have no data.
@privateger @mochabeau i feel like i could get hopelessly addicted to this oh no

@privateger Another cool one is @everydoor. It's great for adding new shops etc.

@mochabeau

@amapanda yeah, but everydoor expects you to be a bit qualified in how OSM works, while StreetComplete suits better for complete beginners

It's a very nice tool, but more... advanced one. When you need more POI editing capabilities than StreetComplete overlays may offer, this is it

Otherwise, StreetComplete looks & works better, in my experience

TL;DR: install both, and go with SC
