#12This data should be contributed to openstreetmap and not just added to a possibly short-lived public website. OSM has been outstandingly good for finding public toilets almost wherever I went.
A lot of the data is already available on data.gov.ie in geojson format, especially for the Dublin and the Greater Dublin Area. I just wish these people would abide by the CC-BY licence of their original datasource and credit it.

I wish we in Canada had a great site like that. Statistics Canada is notoriously aggressive and the data they do collect is presented in a horrible like a website from the 1990s. That's if you can even find what you want on one of several sites, each dataset is its own website.

#14This is the UK equivalent: https://www.toiletmap.org.uk/ - love this stuff!

#15Afaik you can use the toilet at any pub by law. So that kind of puts a lot more pins on the map!

what search engine/service do I need to use to find public toilets on OSM? I tested it with public toilets but was only able to find one 'dog toilet' within city limits...

In the end OSM is a database. I use OsmAnd, but I believe that Maps.me uses the same dataset.

I second this. The data should be merged upstream to OSM, and they have a fairly well documented process to add such contributions.
For those who are interested, the OsmAnd app with the OSM extension enabled is the easiest way to add/enrich map data in my opinion. I have added hundreds of small contributions over the years.

Yep, and also with much more data for example "toilets:wheelchair=yes/no/limited": https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Tag:amenity=toilets
As well as cost, payment methods and opening hours
