Looks like it might have been case sensitive.

I did try using a - in front of the user name, but their notes still showed up. :/

I wish Notes Review let you filter out a user. One person makes a lot of notes in my area, and many of them are ones that are low-priority to add. It would be nice to be able to see everything else. I know I can do this on StreetComplete, but it would be helpful to be able to do it on desktop as well.

Yeah, GIMP was my backup plan. It would just be hard to read the street names.

Unfortunately, I don’t know what any of those are. Sound complicated.

The closest thing I’ve found so far is https://geojson.io

That’s the intent of OpenSidewalks, but last I checked it was only available for three cities.

OSM is not popular in Canada, partially due to a vicious cycle where there isn’t enough information filled in so people don’t use it so nobody contributes. I used it because in my old city the map was basically perfect (I think it was imported from City data,) and I had no data plan so I needed offline maps.

After I moved I noticed that the map was incomplete so I started contributing again. There are around 5 names in my area that I see contributing on a nearly daily basis. That might not seem like much, but I’ve singlehandedly nearly finished my neighborhood’s buildings and sidewalks in the last two months.

Still, get your friends into it. I showed a friend of mine who bikes OrganicMaps after Google Maps routed him on a 4" wide dirt footpath in the dark one night. He was sold right away when I showed him that he can search for water fountains. Another friend of mine loved how detailed OSM was compared to Google Maps and switched as well, and now they help me with Street Complete sometimes. Every bit helps.

Does that seem high, or low?
