Is there a recommended way to contribute to OpenStreetMaps? There's so much stuff in Vancouver that could use updates, but I'm not sure where to start

It's a bit overwhelming. I see a lot of documentation, but it's a lot to read through for the average user.
Should I just download the surveyor app and start fixing things? Is there another community that's updating things?
A big issue I notice is that the building lines are all janky, which makes it annoying to use.

I recommend starting with StreetComplete. It's a lot of fun.
For desktop, start with the standard ID editor which is user friendly.
