MODERATORS
Just came up with another idea, suggest stuff to OpenStreetMaps if the area needs to be edited or added.
Edit: and rate stuff on yelp, TripAdvisor, or something else like that.
If you are interested in open street maps, then you might want to check out the StreetComplete app. It will give you various quests to complete and achievements to unlock.
I've been doing street complete for over a year now and didn't know how much I would enjoy it. It's also doing something for the community of people who use open street map data (usually hobbyists or folks looking for an alternative to the privacy violating giants). I feel proud of my work when I see my contributions on OSMAnd+ or when I post a picture of a place and somebody can use that data to contribute to the map.
Can confirm, StreetComplete is very fun to enhance your general existence in / awareness of a place.
