Everything #OpenStreetMap related is welcome: software releases, showing of your work, questions about how to tag something, as long as it has to do with OpenStreetMap or OpenStreetMap-related software.

OpenStreetMap is a map of the world, created by people like you and free to use under an open license.

Join OpenStreetMap and start mapping: https://www.openstreetmap.org/.

There are many communication channels about OSM, many organized around a certain country or region. Discover them on https://openstreetmap.community/

https://mapcomplete.org/ is an easy-to-use website to view, edit and add points (such as shops, restaurants and others)

https://learnosm.org/en/ has a lot of information for beginners too.

Would be awesome if this somehow results in in-app life traffic data but I doubt it.

Magic Earth has traffic and uses OSM data. It's closed source, but they seem to be one of the better map/navigation companies when it comes to privacy.

Yeah, I know magic earth but as you said, it's closed source. Also it's only a navigation app. You can't easily search and browse restaurants, like with organic maps or Google maps. Not intuitively at least. So you would still need a second app for that.
