Everything #OpenStreetMap related is welcome: software releases, showing of your work, questions about how to tag something, as long as it has to do with OpenStreetMap or OpenStreetMap-related software.

OpenStreetMap is a map of the world, created by people like you and free to use under an open license.

There are many communication channels about OSM, many organized around a certain country or region. Discover them on https://openstreetmap.community

https://mapcomplete.org is an easy-to-use website to view, edit and add points (such as shops, restaurants and others)

https://learnosm.org/en/ has a lot of information for beginners too.

Pro Tip: osm.org redirects to openstreetmap.org (osm.org)

This can save you some time when opening the OSM Website.

Also links to coordinates or objects can be shortened like https://osm.org/relation/62422

Unfortunately Mozilla-based browsers do not save the osm.org in history.

Fennec (firefox fork) saves it in its history.

Your link is not saved. Weird. Probably because of the redirect. Must be a bug in ff because org.com is saved but your link isn't 😅

Edit: if I use http, i.e. no SSL, the link is saved in ff. Definitely a bug.
