Bwa, we’ve had worse ;)
It is the abbreviation of OpenStreetMap.org, a crowdsourced map of the world. You’ve 100% sure already used the data of the project, in the form of Organic Maps, OsmAnd, the maps on Facebook, instagram en Whatsapp or Pokemon Go.

There will never be ‘more momentum’ if you don’t build it. Just kick it off and host this person, others will follow.
I use maps for navigation (mostly OsmAnd) and improve OpenStreetMap with my self-made website (https://mapcomplete.org)
Correct. Naming of ubuntu is always . of release. The LTS’es are supported for four years, so when 24.04 is released, the 20.04 will be EOL

Yes. I’m mostly developing a website, and testing on another browser is necessary every now and then. But that is my only use reason.

There is a (somewhat) active community here too: !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml

FF local translations is already there in the stable releases. Just update!
For maps: either OsmAnd or Organic Maps. The first one is a beast but needs to be tamed, the latter one is more user friendly. They are both based on !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml
Additionally, you can use https://mapcomplete.org to improve the maps (or the online editor in openstreetmap.org)
Some shameless advertising: there is an OpenStreetMap-community on lemmy: !openstreema0@lemmy.ml
Shoutout: we have a community here to on lemmy: !openstreetmap@lemmy.ml
Look for a local hackerspace, they might have the right connections. Most of them have regular (often weekly) ‘social nights’ where you can hang out.
Https://Mapcomplete.osm.be/hackerspaces has an (incomplete) listing
Sorry, but HERE-maps does not use OSM data. They list their sources here: https://legal.here.com/en-gb/terms/general-content-supplier-terms-and-notices
