I used to add photos to Google Maps. As I grew up, I feel that I dont want to support us corporation.

Which alternative is the most popular in your country? In Poland I use mapy.com, and I add ratings, photos of the places. Is there any better platform? What do you use in France, Germany, Italy etc?

i use osmand when im doing bike rides and hikes. If i see that some paths are missing, I record my track, upload to openstreetmaps and use that data to draw new paths on the laptop. Stuff like Strava, komoot uses osm data. Using StreetComplete or SCEE is also fun
