Looks similar, but I think SC is more like a game? This looks more like an editor. SC gives you a question about your current location, like when you walk past a shop it asks you for the opening hours, or what sort of pavement are you currently walking on.
But whatever works for improving OSM I'm happy with.
Yes, that’s basically exactly what Go Map does, though it is a bit less gamified
