I wish Streetcomplete had an ios app. The ios editors are all far too cluttered and hard to use on mobile. I've almost been considering making my own editor like streetcomplete but as a web app so it's cross platform.

Are you aware of https://mapcomplete.org/ ?
Web-based and thematically focused.
Re: Make your first edit to OpenStreetMap
#112This seems to be a very powerful way to contribute to OpenStreetMap, but I'm not sure if it's the right option for a new user. I have over 2k contributions and most are from the Every Door app ( https://every-door.app/ ) on my phone. If adding new data is too "scary", then maybe use StreetComplete ( https://streetcomplete.app/ ) which essentially asks questions about missing or existing old data. I've added buildings…
I've taken StreetComplete with me on walks around my neighborhood and on a few vacations. It was really easy to submit data for missing items.
I did my first contributions last week with it. Really easy and the UI is simple and nice.
Re: Make your first edit to OpenStreetMap
#113I've made a bunch of edits just through the website, because my rural village was not very accurately reflected on OSM. I've added all the missing footpaths, fixed a couple of intersections, and added building footprints for all the houses.
I'm not sure anyone but me cares, since most people use Google maps. But it's satisfying to have accurate maps for myself at any rate.
