It's always better to fix yourself if you can. Anonymous notes are not always looked at unless you've really put a good explanation. If you just wrote "wrong toll booth location" it's probably not going to be fixed indeed. You can share your notes link here if you want and maybe somebody will fix it seeing it here. If you don't have an account then contributors can't ask follow up questions either...
Edit: just saw you linked it and it was resolved sorry
Like I said elsewhere, I've so far not gotten value out of Organic Maps, and the burden to create an account and learn how to contribute something fairly complicated like this is higher than I'm willing to go to to contribute back to a service that hasn't even provided me value.
I'd like to think my note had a pretty good explanation. It was fairly specific about the issue and what the resolution should be. As you've seen, it did get fixed, thanks to @eatham@aussie.zone. But getting bespoke help by finding it on Lemmy is not exactly ideal, and considering all those other unresolved notes still haven't been resolved, I don't have much hope that my note would have been resolved either, had I not linked it in here. That's...not great, and doesn't encourage contributors to help out more.
