Yes, JOSM has GeoJSON and OpenData plugins.

The technical side is only half of it though as the source has to meet the license requirements and there is a process to follow for imports:

Looks like half of them have incompatible licenses and can't be imported:

@pineapplelover If you find a quest repetitive you can disable it in the settings. @balsoft

@balsoft I think this quest is disabled by default these days and has to be re-enabled in the settings.

Seems to confuse HOT and OSM in general in a few places.

And I found the timeline bit confusing. Was Google running in parallel to Keyhole for a bit before acquisition or are they just mentioning Google before they got involved?

The MapLibre v Leaflet article sounds interesting, but loses all credibility before you even get to the text.

If the image is AI slop then the text probably is too.

The first part is a reference to my general feeling of deja vu.

The second is a reference to these guys: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Here/_WeGo

My first instinct is "Here We Go Again" but I think there's an existing map company that would take exception to that.

It's faster, but still incredibly slow.

They're both vector based. Purely from usage it feels like OsmAnd is rerendering everything from scratch every time with little caching. If you pan away and pan back it takes effectively the same amount of time to recreate the previously rendered view as a fresh view. This time seems to increase with addition obfs for "live" updates etc.
When Organic Maps updates slowly it tends to feel like vector tiles "falling back" to lower zoom until more detail is retrieved.

Points of interest and amenities are probably the next most useful. Things like street lighting and sidewalks quite helpful for pedestrians. It's more important that you are still enjoying mapping. If there is something that you know is useful but you find tedious it's ok to skip it and either leave it for someone else or come back to it later

As it sounds like you're on Android, I'd recommend @streetcomplete for easily adding detail while on the go.

@Sir_Kevin if it's your own data you probably qualify for the contributors program if you don't want to help fund development.
