Compare the production values of channels like e.g. philosophy tube and old AVGNs. Times have changed.

Philosophy Tube is available on Nebula. I think that place is a viable alternative to YT if you’re mainly watching educational stuff.

It is but there's just not enough content to get me to fully stop YouTube yet. YouTube still has so much long form content only on YouTube.

That being said, nebula is amazing and you all should check it out and support the creators using it.

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.
