In Czechia, for example, there's a fairly successful (in some ways even superior) Google Maps competitor in Mapy.cz. Google Maps are better in Prague and other larger cities. Mapy.cz focused on providing features Google didn't really care about, like mapping hiking and cycling trails or having nearly every backcountry road covered in their Street View alternative.

If you check the attribution, mapy.cz is an OpenStreetMap consumer!

(I also do a lot of OSM mapping, so I know my edits when I see them :D)

I know! Too bad they don't contribute more, because they've got lots of very precise data from different public organizations.
