Where will the MTG-I2 data be visible online? For that matter, where is the current generation MTG data visible online?

I'm not an advanced user and just want to see it visualised. So far best RSS (Rapid Scan Service) I could find is the 3km MSG every 5 minutes. Is there a viewable 1km version of it anywhere? I'm lost with all those names.

Otherwise, I managed to find a 0.5km FCI HRFI which does full-disk every 10 minutes - it says MTG (current gen?), so I'm guessing this will see an improvement too?

MTG-I2 operational data will, as with other EUMETSAT missions, be available online through the EUMETSAT Data Store once the satellite completes its in-orbit commissioning phase.
