I have to agree with that, you have given up all your rights now, so
just accept it. I did not accept it and am not planning on it, But I
will continue to contribue to OSM as they allow me, without accepting
the contributors terms, by publishing my changes under CC-BY-SA for
all to use as they want.

I am working on mapping now, completely outside of any central osm
database using git

I dont need any central database, rendering can be done locally and shared.

feel free to join me, I am working on a new blog post on some other work.

Ideas are to make a tiny rails engine that you can use locally that
uses git or extend josm to use git for you.
