@richlv @jakobbak @organicmaps im sorry, i just feel very annoyed by people that think pointing out other peoples mistakes publicly is a community service. People struggle with communicating and if you want to help send a direct message.

Oh, I perceive it quite the other way - that people read announcements (not just blindly fav/boost them), and are helpful enough to share improvements.

Public/private - yes, in some cases a private msg can be more appropriate, but in most cases I'd prefer a public one.
It allows the original poster to fix the problem and reply with a nice message (better impression :) ).
And it also allows others to see it, avoiding possibly dozens of redundant private messages.

And the next person reading the fixed message won't see that mistake, leaving a better impression.

Benefits all around from helpful communication :)
