I was wondering why there isn’t or if there is, an Open Source (Free, or not) Street View like Google Maps. I like geography as a hobby, like my other hobbies, and found GeoHub which sparked my interest in being a free geoguessr alternative. I just don’t understand why Google is the only Mapping service people go to, is Google the only one that has street view? is this a hard business model to achieve?

Please, I’d love too know :)

    KartaView went proprietary, and they were dishonest all the time. Look at their github issues with more comments. IIRC there were also bought out, by something that’s only popular in some country.
