I used to be that naive, then I tried to correct a Places issue on Facebook. I stumbled into this netherworld of similar people being abused with horrible tools continually banging their heads against a wall "to help people," with little or no support from Facebook.
After months of trying, I totally failed at my task, and I vowed never again. These company just abusively exploit people's need to help others for their own profit. If Google/Facebook/etc. wants me to work for them, they can pay me and give me reasonable tools.
I enjoy taking photos and reviewing food. I used to do it on Zomato, and made some friends through that, but Zomato pulled out of my country and Google Maps is pretty much the only good existing choice
Just curious why you guys do this and for free?
