I've been contributing to Google Maps for a while, specifically, I usually upload pictures of menu's from restaurants, so future visitors can see them before they decide to eat there! I'm trying to degoogle my life a bit & was wondering if there is a way I could contribute these to OSM?

I've also wondered this. I'd also like to contribute info on how busy places generally are around me, so you know to show up early if you want a table, or don't bother dining in on a weekend, etc.

Apparently MapComplete integrated mangrove.reviews, and you can upload pictures from MapComplete, so that may be the best option for now?

There's also https://lib.reviews/ which is Creative Commons licensed. Looks like there's open issues to integrate that into OSM via a plugin: https://github.com/eloquence/lib.reviews/issues/319

Map complete looks great ~ but there doesn't seem to be an Android app for it. It would be neat if organic maps could integrate with mangrove.reviews.

You can install it as progressive web app (basically a glorified bookmark on your home page, opening full screen giving an 'app'-experience).

I might package it as Android app one day, but that is something that'll take some time (and hopefully funding from NlNet).

This is what I've done! Expect some reviews on mangrove from me soon :)
