Is there a great way to contribute from mobile?
Absolutely! StreetComplete is incredibly easy to use and doesn’t require any knowledge about mapping or the inner workings of OpenStreetMap. At this point, it’s a very polished app with a great UI and many useful features.
Oh this is so cool
Shame it’s not on iOS. I’ve corrected a few things on local maps directly on Google’s platform (hilariously, it keeps rejecting some of them which are clearly visible from the satellite image), but I’ve always wanted to fix up the local OSM map. It’s just really intimidating as someone with only a very surface level understanding of how GIS works.
Apparently they’re working on an iOS version as well:

I enjoy mapping in openstreetmaps. Does that make me weird?
No, it makes you cool. 😎 Thank you for your contributions!
it’s funny to me that the US is so fucked in pedestrian mobility that if you look at a map, the roads are not guaranteed to have pavements that you can walk on.
I’m From European and it’s not uncommon here either sadly, especially in the country side (old roads used around agricultural fields and farms for example).
But there is hardly any traffic on these roads so walking there is safe
Edit: seems like I’m simply blessed in Austria and it’s different elsewhere
