It would be great to have an alternative to Terraform that uses a bit more advanced provider (at last for AWS). Does OpenTofu use that same provider?

The providers for tofu are by design the same as for terraform.

Also, for large providers like AWS, GCP, Azure, etc - these are often largely authored by the hyperscaler themselves, for better or worse.

It does. What are you looking for in a more advanced AWS provider?

Have you ever debugged what goes on with lets say the aws provider during a tf apply?
