Odysee?
Why did you get downvoted lol? Odysee and Peertube are pretty good alternatives.
Damn didnt know that was FOSS
https://github.com/OdyseeTeam
My biggest gripe with Odysee is the fact a lot of the people I like to watch aren't on there. Otherwise, if they'd just set up an account and have it linked to their yt account, I'd be on there a lot more.
Anyone who is trying to make money from their videos isn't likely to have any incentive to be on Odysee, unless thay start paying for views with something other than their useless in-house crypto.
Plus, the audience on Odysee is miniscule compared to pretty much any other video platform.
I've been using GrayJay which has been the game changer for me. I know it's not completely FOSS, but I feel like it is an amazing step in the right direction. I have access to my YouTube sub's AND the Odysee/Peertube/etc counterparts. So as channels transition, the subscribers can too. I feel like this is the necessary direction for more adoption, since like you and others have said, Odysee and Peertube don't have enough main channels for incentive
