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 :)

Yeah, if you use OsmAnd it shows you mapillary images in the app. You can click around the same as with Google, but the images are all open source.

Thus problem has already been solved :)
