OpenStreetMap Is Turning 20
There's often discussions in the default OSM map renderer project[1] about what the goal of the project should be.
A lot of people have niche interests that they want implemented in the map, but that just looks busy to everybody else.

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.

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.
