The current state of map design in OpenStreetMap
I wouldn't compare osm-website and osm-carto at all. The commit logs are very different.
openstreetmap-website: https://github.com/openstreetmap/openstreetmap-website/commi... . Numerous commits most days.
openstreetmap-carto: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/commits . So far in 2024; one small regression fixed, one niche bit of tagging added to an existing style, some largely pointless code style tidying. That's it.

Pittsburgh busways
There are even two separate PRs to fix it that are pretty much ready to merge https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/4456 https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/pull/4714
- Btreefs generates executable code at runtime to unpack btree nodes

Tell us about how you communicate within OSM
Looks like sense prevailed the following year. https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/1654

Tagging a named natural basin or cirque
Of course, natural=valley itself is widely used. I got curious why it isn't rendered on OSM Carto but place=locality is and stumbled on some interesting discussions on the issue tracker (1 and 2). The takeaway seems to be to avoid place=locality in favour of more specific tags.
- Fairmount Park Philadelphia landcover improvement
- certain map data wont show in export

Is it possible to send area to the backward.
It is strange to me that the pedestrian area gets rendered above the building... would you like to create a topic about this at community.openstreetmap.org ? I think this should be handled differently. I guess the next instance then would be to open an issue at https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto (probably but I'm not 100% sure) or maybe here https://github.com/openstreetmap/operations

Why does coasters still not get rendered in OSM? Race tracks, water slides etc. get also rendered, so why not coasters as well.
I think the best bet then is to see if there's anything to contribute to the conversation at https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/3596 or whether a PR would be welcome.

OpenGeoFiction: The ultimate imaginary map
Yes, it is the same style! In addition to info from /u/epicbirble, the style is called carto. It looks like Floodmap is using the OpenStreetMap standard layer, rendered using carto style, as its basemap.

Google will no longer hold onto people's location data in Google Maps
I modified an open source GPX recording app called Trackbook to turn it into a 24/7 recorder, and I wrote about it here:
https://voussoir.net/writing/obsessed_with_gpx
I have a few recent commits in my repository that I haven't put into a versioned APK yet though.
The output GPX files can be viewed on the PC with JOSM:

Here's a view in my editing-program (https://josm.openstreetmap.de/):

Farmland inside a wood
JOSM has quite convenient merge/split functions, making deletion and re-tracing unnecessary. I took care of the issue in https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/134052747

What is your favorite app for creating MTB GPX routes?
Record your track and upload it onto Open Street Map. That's the map service that Strava and Garmin utilize. You'll be able to add the trail for everyone to see regardless of the program as long as it uses OSM. JOSM is a really good program to edit OSM and here's a video to get you started on how to use it.

QGIS is the mapping software you didn't know you needed
Great for preparing data for OSM, but JOSM is the only desktop editor for actually making contributions.

I'm Losing Sleep over Java
One that comes to my mind would be JOSM: https://josm.openstreetmap.de/

why their isn't a single feature rich editing Android app ?
If you want to do more advanced editing, I would suggest JOSM. It is very powerfull and there is a huge list of plugins. You can do almost anything, but it runs on desktop devices.

[OC] Every High School Baseball Field Used in the State of Hawaii
You could also do all of this in OpenStreetMap or one of its open source editors like JOSM, then run a filter for tags of those features (probably something like “playfield” or “baseball”) in Overpass Turbo. One cool thing about this option is all your work would be visible and usable by the general public forever.

Headway is a self-hosted alternative to Google Maps which supports 200+ cities across the globe
If you want to look at the structure of OSM, JOSM is a good desktop application and Vespucci for Android is the least awful option there. The wiki can tell you what the tags mean; here's more info on the route tag. You can find more info about the Overpass API that lets you run weird queries against the map here.
