I no longer actively upload to OSM, but I do keep collecting trails
when i go new places.
I stopped because the editors fell into these categories:
 - overly complex
 - used proprietary software
 - had crap usability
 - a combination of above.

None seemed to easily/obviously let me do the things i wanted to do:
 - bulk upload trails, then
 - enter in the street data, then
 - enter in the street names

That was probably 12 months ago now, so I'll be interested to see if
there are nice new ways to do things :)
