looks like OP is a beginner and not an experienced editor
Basically yes. I have contributed a few times when I thought about it, but then go long stretches between contributions. But it’s only now that I’m trying to make a conscious effort TO think about it more once I downloaded organic maps so I could move away from Google.
I’ve always had the opinion that if you use an FOSS product, the “cost” is in “contribution”; which doesn’t have to be monetary (though I often do). The payment for using a FOSS app (to me) is to contribute in terms of either helping to develop it, or writing user manuals for it (I helped with LibreOffice Documentation back in the day) or even creating tutorials or recording tutorials, or even just championing it’s use to your friends and family.
Moving away from Google I realized that I had been negligent in that with OSM. I’ve contributed to most of mybigger ones (GIMP, Scribus, Inkscape, LibreOffice, etc…) But OSM just fell under the radar. So I’m trying to correct that by making a point of contributing to the data as much as I can.

The idiot president of one country can call it whatever he wants. But it doesn’t make it internationally recognized.
