I'd say that's what a lot of users are doing!
Louis Rossmann made another video on the topic (Gist; some users generate money, others cost money, can't blame anyone for wanting to lose the dead weight.), and if you read the comments, you'll find plethora of extremely valid reasons why so many YT users use the platform despite of how much they despise it.
Let's face it, YT is basically a monopoly at this time. Just ask around see how many people know of Rumble & Odyssey, and compare to yt...
In 2022, the user count of YouTube significantly surpassed that of Rumble. According to a source, as of December 2022, YouTube had approximately 2.681 billion monthly active users, while Rumble had around 80 million monthly active users
So, 2681 million users for YT, vs 80 for Rumble... Odyssey is even less.
Big tech basically controls information. If you care or are aware of it, you likely wouldn't want to support it in any shape or form, let alone with your hard earned money... But unless you basically go off-grid, you just basically can't get around not using those platforms... X/Twitter kinda got rescued by Musk, although some will argue that even if it's better, not quite there yet in terms of free speech and all, and yt is really more comparable to old twitter. And I can easily foresee more yt purges coming, so hopefully, it self-destroys and users will move on to better (freer) platforms. But, its grasp on the populace is so solid, I have trouble seeing it happen any time soon... Just look at the most popular yt channels....... As long as so many people want that...
