Not in rotations yet but I’ve seen a handful of people who also use AMBOSS and like it. Amboss also works for how I think - where I can quickly jump between questions and content to clarify.

I would go with Amboss. Having both the questions and the library is really nice if you need to look stuff up on your phone really fast.
I wasn't a fan of boards and beyond's question bank, and the videos can be found for free pretty easily online.
I would skip onlinemeded. There is a lot of outdated advice in their old videos, though I don't know how the quality is going to be once they start updating them
AMBOSS's article database is so helpful, and their practice questions (and answer explanations) are super valuable. If you keep an eye out for sales or contact them about getting a group discount for you and your classmates, it really is a good deal. I just finished first year and managed to wrangle a really good deal on the 5-year subscription that gets you through PGY-1, but if you're already going into 3rd year, a 2 or 3 year plan might end up being a better deal for you.
For Anki, I posted a link to a good, free OMM resource on the other med school community, and there are pdf copies of Savarese 4th edition floating around the net. https://lemmy.sdf.org/post/605523
