Hi. I'm trying to understand what are you talking about, and I have two
options:
1- that there are mistakes in the map. that's a good thing, that you
are able to spot them, because you can correct them. I suggest you do
so, and share the good news when you have something to celebrate!
2- you

You can make the map quite precise and up to date by employing a GPS
tracker. Here is, for example, a 431 km GPS trace which I recorded
with the Garmin 35 eTrex device (no affiliation) earlier

I'm fairly lucky in that in the last three years nothing much has
changed locally. The highways have stayed much the same. Most
buildings are still there.
If you use Bing to add things

Have you tried what was proposed in
"In your specific case you should engage with the mapper(s) in question via
changeset comments and try to explain the situation to them. If that doesn't
work
OSM is not a "fake map." OSM is a crowdsourced map, pretty good in many
places, even excellent in others. Does it have errors? Yes, as do all maps.
Do these errors diminish and does the map improve over time? For the most
part, yes, unlike many maps.
If you don't like OSM or find it
copied that and it is wrong
and how do you see thing under the trees unless you walk it.
so who is to say that any of OSM is not fake.
if all mappers are tracing.

If you use Bing to add things then realistically it fills in gaps in the
map. If you delete things because they are not in Bing that is a
A couple of general points first:
- nobody "owns" their OSM data in any larger OSM community your data
will be changed by other mappers, and sometimes they will be wrong and
sometimes you,
- good comments and source tags are your friend, indicating how the data
was sourced is key to enabling
it say in some wiki. to correct what you find wrong on the map,
not one “other nearby users” is a current mapper, and all edits in a 5 mile
radius are not coming from an on the ground
mappers in my area but 20 miles + away and are tracing from bing, and the
