A Year of Google and Apple Maps

Huh, there actually used to be a real benefit - free Drive storage upgrades once you hit a certain tier. Guess things got popular enough they ditched it.

(disclaimer: work on maps, nothing to do with guides tho)

I have been occasionally contributing to Google Maps and thought that I will get the Drive storage!

They never mentioned it in any of their emails, or the "newsletters" you get "access" to once you hit level 1.

Now, the grand reward (once you hit more than 500 points) is being a "trusted Google tester".

This is a joke and free work for Google. I will be contributing to OSM from now on.
