Gregory's Server@Wuzzy I have actually contributed quite a bit to google maps as our city was missing important information. But i have done the same for openstreetmaps and submitted over 600 changes.
I kinda stopped adding to google maps though nowadays.

@blackwolf I hope you understand the problem with Google Maps is that your data is essentially "locked" in there. It is easy to adopt OSM data for other map databases but Google Maps explicitly forbids it. https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Google
With OSM, you contribute directly to the global community, with Google Maps, you only contribute to Google.
That having said, thank you for your service to OSM and I'm glad to read you stopped working for Google Maps. 👍
