I am working a talk for DORS/CLUC in Zagreb about #OSM.
My topic is how and why to start contributing to #OpenStreetMap as a total beginner. I'll be showcasing tools such as @streetcomplete , @everydoor, @MapComplete.
I'll be also talking about #gamification, #community, helping projects like #hotOSM and #OpenHistoryMap.
Do you have any tricks or ideas you would like me to include into the talk. How would you encourage a total stranger to start contributing?

No, #gamification is simpler in concept and very broad. We all use it in daily life.
If you raised children for instance, did you pretend that the spoon was an airplane when you brought it to your toddlers mouth? That's gamification. Or when you packaged a warm sweater in a present you kid thinks is the Gameboy they crave? Which comes as a surprise after that one. Gamification too.

I do not agree on your take wrt #Gamification, though how you describe it has become how many people have come to see it, knowing it from many ways in which it has been abused.

With it the comment that "The Metaverse is basically a #MMORPG , albeit one that just…doesn’t…end". I agree with the article, though have a more nuanced take on the role of #gamification as described there.
