I don’t think anyone is proposing an overnight switch. You’ve got to take the long view. That said, I do think when it comes to federated activity pub style projects, Mastodon has gotten off the ground, Lemmy has exploded, pixel-fed seems to be doing pretty good, but the video stuff appears to be a tougher nut to crack.
My gradual migration from YT has resulted in a very fragmented landscape. Many cool vids on Nebula, some on Odysee, but still way too many in YT. Let’s just hope the enshittification of YT speeds up and people respond accordingly by switching to another platform.

That solves some of the problems, so I’ll count that as a step toward. However, the people who make the videos can suddenly be ignored by the algorithm or their channel can suddenly be deleted without a warning.
As a member of the audience, I’m frequently annoyed by the quality of the search results. They clearly serve YT more than they serve me.
