I've been contributing to Google Maps for a while, specifically, I usually upload pictures of menu's from restaurants, so future visitors can see them before they decide to eat there! I'm trying to degoogle my life a bit & was wondering if there is a way I could contribute these to OSM?

If the menu is available on a website you can link to it by adding the website:menu tag. These will show on Organic Maps for example

https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key%3Awebsite%3Amenu

See for example this bar that Organic Maps shows the link to the Menu:

Mate Bar https://omaps.app/0ysrTcXR-t/Mate_Bar om://0ysrTcXR-t/Mate_Bar

In my experience website menus aren't incredibly common, perhaps I could upload the photo and link that though.
