Lemmy seems like the right place to ask this. Personally I've really enjoyed Gurgle, which is a FOSS Wordle clone app.

I also love OSM, but I often heavily rely on Satellite imagery for orientation.

For example, when I explore an area, I‘m going to travel to, I almost exclusively look to the city‘s satellite imagery beforehand to identify landmarks and use them for orientation. Unfortunately that doesn’t work well with OSM.

Has anyone an OSM equivalent for satellite imagery?

I use OsmAnd on Android and it has a feature to overlay (or underlay) map tiles from multiple sources. I use the OSM tiles as my default and overlay Microsoft's satellite imagery over them, which I can turn on and off (or even adjust opacity with a slider).
