dried up generally, or just in my local area?

NE England seems the same.

My working assumption is Microsoft/Meta/Amazon have switched focus to Overture Maps Foundation, so high-res imagery is ageing out (e.g. Bing). The old 6-12 month update cadence is long gone. :-(

There are still some oddities where low zoom is 1-2years old, but closer in 5 years old-ish.

I'm using a GoPro, bike, and Mapillary to copy/paste known new build footprints (source=eye), and correct with cadastral data later.

Happy Mapping,


James
