Title says it all. I'll go first:

I don't really have any on my computer (all I use that for is Vim, Firefox, and Git), but on my phone: Orbot (basically Tor as a VPN on your phone).

It fully depends on the area. My city has only a few hardcore mappers, but that's all it takes to make it really detailed.

    Alright, thanks for letting me know! I've looked at it a while back (it seems it would've been really nice for hiking) and it didn't seem to have everything -- granted I live in the middle of nowhere.

    There are some apps you can get where it will ask you questions about features where you are, and you upload the answer back to osm.
    sorry I cant remember the names of these apps though - everywhere i go (in the uk) the osm content is awesome. better than google for basically all but businesses.
