I mean that's true for now, but so did TV at one point.

What market can emerge to take a bite out of youtube? All I can think of are tik tok, video games, and books. Youtube makes plenty of money off of podcasts. I doubt nebula or similar will grow enough to take a sizable portion of youtube's userbase. Alternate hosting sites might be neat but I don't think enough people are tech literate/savy/informed enough for that or are simply too lazy to seek out stuff like that.

TikTok came out of nowhere.

Why can't something else?

I subscribed to nebula so I could watch the jet lag series early and all the other videos on there are literally just the liberal war analysis videos. so nebula has that market covered but any other genre of video will have to rely on youtube. also nebula doesn't have comments which may be a dealbreaker for many.
