From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I've been contributing to it via Street complete (can get it on fdroid) and it has become quite a hobby of mine.
Same. It's nice to contribute a little on the side. Using Vespucci for a new house was too much of a hassle for me though.
Probably the best way to contribute buildings is using the JOSM editor and the buildings plug-in.
It's only available on the computer and it has quite the learning curve, but it's a very powerful tool for serious editing. Usually the iD editor is good enough for easier editing than on mobile.
I've started using StreetComplete. It's a great tool for wandering around and putting in data to OSM.
I'll check it out thanks for the suggestion
