The OSM Foundation has been serving raster tiles for years and years (that's what's visible by default on the slippy map at www.openstreetmap.org): https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenStreetMap_Carto
After on and off experimentation by various contributors, OSMF just released vector tiles as well: https://operations.osmfoundation.org/policies/vector/
