@pietervdvn: cool, did not know that page. Where is it uploading to?
Images are uoloaded to imgur. Not perfect, but it just works and is reliable.
All other data gets (generally) uploaded to OSM, except for reviews which go to mangrove.reviews
And there is some Wikipedia/Wikidata in the mix for some other pages too, but that is clearly attributed
@redd
The images to imgur are backed up in case they get deleted from imgur for whatever reason btw.
And soon :tm: they'll be uploaded to an open source image hosting system but I still need to get that online
