OSM isn't a website or a web app. It's a repository of map data. Problem is, there is no good browser web app that uses OSM data.

And unfortunately OSM can be incomplete in many small cities and rural areas :(

I recommend StreetComplete to anyone that wants to help complete OSM in their local areas.

OSM actually does have a website where you can freely browse the map, I’m not really sure what you are saying here. The main purpose of OSM is to provide data for other maps but openstreetmap.org is a fully functional map website

Openstreetmap.org is a blurry mess. Navigation is shit. Functionality is pretty bare-bones.

That’s because, like I said, the main purpose is to provide data for other maps and services, but saying an OSM map website doesn’t exist is very silly. I find OSM.org to work fine for me, there’s third party OSM mobile apps you can use

Yup. It's great for adding data and browsing the map, just don't browse the map while in edit mode (it really sucks on my machine).

"Good" is subjective
