| 9 | I mean I can select download area 0.01 square km - but with thousands of downloads and my high latency it's going to take hours as well. |

| 11 | I get the following error messages - see attachments. |

| 13 | About that the amount of data I'm downloading is too big. |
| 14 | |
| 15 | I asked the OSM support for the servers if they can do something on the restrictions preventing me from adding medium range bus routes but they already replied nothing will be done in this regard. Instead I should just join the discussion groups and discuss my frustration that I can't add bus routes using JOSM due to the restrictions - but it won't be resolved by lifting these limitations of 1980 sizes of 1MB aka floppy disk size restrictions. |

| 17 | So how to mitigate this in JOSM so I can add such bus routes using JOSM? |
| 18 | |
| 19 | And I tried using to download objects from the overpass - but if I do that - granted I get all the data - but then I keep seeing these yellowish stripes and can't actually work on that data and upload it - to upload I need to download it twice - again from the api.openstreetmap.org otherwise it'll reject the added bus route changes. |

| 21 | so I'm kinda stuck. The alternative is just stop recording medium range bus routes using gpx and simply don't add them to OSM. - which is what I'm now considering - because 4-5 hours to download some data to add a medium range bus route - I can drink coffee sure but drinking 4-5 hours coffee because every 10 minutes or so I can download another small area along the route - is kinda extremely frustrating. |

| 23 | And it's not like I don't have tons of other data I can add to OSM for which I don't need to download larger areas obviously |
