Hm? What's wrong with them?
They're owned by Meta.
Ah, didn't know that. Then yeah, fuck Meta for taking advantage of crowdsourced efforts
Openstreetmap is copyleft so it isn't quite so bad
Would Panoramax be your preference? It seems like it just needs some more global instances? Federation with AP using https://github.com/swicg/geosocial would be really neat for these types of projects too.
While decentralized is great, I wish Wikimedia would start something similar, maybe with the data still hosted in WikiCommons?
