I downloaded the Android app but when clicking the privacy policy or terms to read them I'm redirected to the sign-in screen and they don't open.

Also, as a point of perspective, I like using things like this to find new places to visit. I have a big list in Google Maps/OSMAnd of interesting places I've found locally, which aren't the easiest to find considering how rural this area is.

EDIT: Seems hard to find places near me? The world map doesn't show all places, and I can't really search for "nearby" users? I have no interest in looking at a global feed, there's no utility there for me unfortunately

Feed is the option where you get content from other users you follow,

Podium is a collection of regional and global content but since the app recently launched it does not have much content,

ideally you should be getting a combination of global and regional content on the podium segregated by content type (art, food, life .. ) in the android version there is single Podium and also content should be interesting enough and should not contain personal images/selfies to make it up to Podium.

thank you for reporting this,

yes one of the main intention is to advise less obvious spots based on what you create, like or follow. if you are visiting London, Trip Advisor top 10 can be good enough but less obvious places that locals find interesting may be found at mapname

since such lists can grow too big, mapname will provide options to manage and share, suggest these lists too
