Question: what service is better than Google Earth for aerial images for individuals to use?

Something with a resolution of 1 foot or better.

I use to use https://zoom.earth/ which was ok, but their high res image support ends this month.

Note: I’m willing to pay but don’t need a corp contract from someone like DigitalGlobe. It’s just for my on land.

I bought a drone. It does the work fantastically, and I can send it up every f-ing day.

Drones are great, hard to scale and provide value to the masses that don't have drones though

If having a 6 month to years old image is fine for your use case then Google Earth is fine. There are many use cases where near real time is preferred and/or other sensors are preferred. We don't expect every consumer to have a near real tine satellite imagery need.
