I’ve tried using it over the years but I never liked it because there was no information. So last night I looked at my local city and there is almost no information at all. I spent a few hours last night adding buildings and restaurants and removing incorrect items. It was actually kind of fun and therapeutic and I plan to do more of it tonight. My girlfriend thinks it’s dumb and I’m wasting my time because Google maps and Apple maps and Bing maps exists but she just doesn’t understand open source.

Edit: Apologies, I just realized this question is not Linux specific.

    Long ago I started my city when there was nothing.

    I did poor job, but I mapped streets in parts of the city I lived until then.

    One or two years ago people fixed my mistakes and mapped the rest of the city. I consider it huge success, so just start and others will come and add more details.

    It was great feeling, calming and fun. And addicting.

    Haven’t done anything recent since all locations I am familiar with are now mapped to great details.
