I spent part of my walk yesterday updating and confirming details for OSM using Street Complete. It's a fun activity, although it must look a bit dodgy from an outsiders perspective.

@DodoTheDev @openstreetmap It's addictive, isn't it? 😄

Almost too addictive. It's like Pokémon Go, but useful 🤣

@DodoTheDev @djh @openstreetmap Oh, so much. I’ve been waiting so often for someone to call the police to investigate on me when sitting on some steps, or leaned against a street lamp, constantly looking up from my phone, down again and typing, up again.

Yes, I can just imagine the police officer being called to it.
"And what are you doing here sir?"
"Hello officer, I'm just logging the details of these houses on my phone so it can be shared with others."
"I see, sir. If you'd like to come with me, I think my burglary colleagues may have some questions for you"
"Oh, yes, they could do this too, it all helps the database. Wait, why are you cuffing me?"
