> SCEE (Street complete Extended Edition) that allows for a lot more tags to be edited and some more nifty customization options

This sounds powerful. Would you recommend it for a beginner?

@strypey @MapAmore @openstreetmap @everydoor if you haven't contributed to osm at all i recommend starting out with street complete get a little feel for what data can be atatched to what kind of nodes.
would recommend https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Beginners%27_guide anyways, no matter what way you want to contribute by.

if you are willing to do a bit of reading in the wiki, i like the editing plugin for OsmAnd, there you can add some other tags that are not implemented in SC (yet) on the road, i addition to SC.
