WHAT is not true? Why can't you be specific?

That's a half year ago, showing an edited screen capture. What relevence is to this discussion?

"They" being Strava? I don't beleve that Strava uses, or has ever used, OSM data.
I'm pretty sure that Strava is a customer of Mapbox, and it's *Mapbox* that uses OSM data
and generates images that Strava displays. If Mapbox is not putting attributions properly,
complain to/about them.
