So nothing new on this front then.
Besides I would not worry that much while AI slop Videos will get more views as they just will be produced in mass yet the lack the creativity and quality and they will fall short on likes.
You also always could switch to Odysee as a alternative

its a youtube alternative with a lot less censorship as far as I am aware.
There really isn't a perfect solution but, the best choices currently for non-streaming videos are odysee, rumble and bitchute (i've got accounts with all 3), generally speaking though i'd upload to as many as i could as you never know when that banhammer will come for no reason on youtube and it's good to have a backup plan, all 3 allow streaming but if streaming is your main goal, i'll list that separate of these 3, X is also technically a option but i'm not suggesting it since i believe streaming requires a verified account on there.
Rumble is a bit more on political topics on average and steers more towards right wing conservative political topics but does hold probably the best stability of the 3 and has a complete lack of censorship provided your not calling for death or someone on average, it also allows for non political content (alot of it's content is non-political, just the biggest draw is it's political commentators) and has likely the largest userbase of the 3, it's also got amazing stability for streaming "though obviously, it has to).
Odysee is probably the most neutral of the 3 on the politics front, but for me is the least stable, having latency issues for me, it may be the easiest of the 3 to transfer videos to though and for just videos it's fine, it's mostly it's streaming functionality i consider subpar in comparison to other solutions.
Bitchute is....weird, it's very good for what it is but it has some of the most unhinged members on the internet from my experience, while it has a ton of good non-conspiracy theory or political stuff, it can have things from alien abduction videos to literal fascist or communist propaganda, i consider bitchute the most "wild west" of the 3, it's infrastructure however is fairly solid, i know nothing of bitchute's streaming infrastructure if it even has it.
Now when it comes to streams, the best options currently would be rumble and kick, rumble i already went into so i'll leave that out of here.
Kick is more of a twitch competitor and is in many ways, superior to twitch as it's not ran by....let's just say the moderation team on twitch is about as insane as your typical reddit moderator and leave it there, kick also has the best streamer pay share of all streaming sites last i checked, stability wise it's probably tied with rumble as the most stable, it like twitch however, is purely for streaming, not really made for videos.
Of all these sites the ones most likely to unseat youtube if it ever happens would be rumble and kick, both have massive money behind them with rumble having a strict stance on non-censorship and powerful backers and streamers in both politics and civilian sectors like gaming, while kick has by far the best value proposition for streamers cut of revenue and has some big names attached to it as well, these 2 are usually the go-to for streamers multi-streaming these days as well, and rumble tends to be the one that tends to be the "second option" for most non-streaming creators these days because again, it's financially stable.
Overall if you truly want to be safe, i'd upload to more than just 2, not like there's any real downside.
