You are in luck my friend: streetcomplete.app
They have made it super easy and fun. I have been playing it for nearly a year and have made a pretty big dent in my local dense metro area.

Thanks, I was following this thread and wanted to say the same thing
I’ve kept updating shops that change, new houses, parking, etc… it’s great. I even used it on vacation (when the SO wasn’t looking)
My global rank is #1554 and ~#130ish in my local country, but #12 in another country I barely visit, so it shows where more people should

Wow good work, my global ranking is #2449.
Ha, yeah it’s good that you slowly clear out your local area because my SO did not appreciate me trying to answer questions while we walked.

Found this thing yesterday. I’ve contributed to OSM more in a day than in the previous year. It’s great.
