They started covering the bigger cities in Germany, but there are fairly strict privacy laws there and too many people started complaining.
Google had to manually censor individual buildings and eventually gave up entirely. The few cities covered in Germany still show image data from 2008.

you could refuse to have your house shown in the internet due to privacy and data protection laws. and so lots of people obejcted and google stopped this thing.

oh I had forgot Germany had basically forbidden it... some 4-5 years ago it was an issue for a while in Switzerland too, and coverage is still a bit spotty.
Street View has been super useful to move around, when going to places I don't know, plan ahead... it would really suck not to have it.

although don't underestimate the power of the petit bourgeoisie, you may not get full Street View there but the small business owners across Germany seem to be willingly uploading photos of at least parts of streets (there's also a fair few woodland trails etc in part photographed and uploaded presumably by folk with Android devices..)

there is an open source project and community by OSM named Mapillary to have pictures of places like in street view from Google.
Example in the picture when looking around Eiffel Tower in Paris

Mapillary is crowd-sourced but NOT open source. And it belongs to Facebook now:

There's also that Google was caught redhanded sniffing everything from local WiFi networks as they passed by in the street, including files in Windows "shared folders", and not only that... but they also kept all the data they collected.
From 2010:
https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2010/may/15/google-admits-storing-private-data
There was more than popular indignation in this case, there was also the German state slapping them in the wrists.
The other countries just don't know or don't care about Google's abysmal practices.

Oh shoooot. And I thought it could become something good :(
ButbI guess that serving all those pictures is not done cheap, so an open source community probably wouldn't have the money to do all this.

In some instances it's pretty good, in some others it's just plain fear of new technology, and sometimes very bad things happen when people don't understand the difference. Like Schools making children use MS Teams ... gotta go with the times, man... :(
