A federated internet archive, I'm wondering whether I should build it myself. With so many journalists being banned for reporting the gaza genocide we need more ways to combat censorship.

It's nowhere close to Street view's quality or quantity, but there is Panoramax

There's Instant Street View, tho it's just I guess a wrapper (???) for Google SV.

I also use Mapillary, I guess it is similar to Panoramax, cause it has the app and it's well done.

Mapillary has the best coverage compared to the alternatives but it's owned by Meta. It's still much more open compared to Google but I figured the ownership is worth noting.
