Well... I am still on YouTube, no good gaming videos on Rumble and Odysee.
there are youtube frontends and apps that proxy videos anonymously so you can't be tracked at all
I use freetube on desktop there's also libretube and newpipe on android
I also started using New Pipe, i like how I can download an HD video without youtube premium
It depends on your threat model. Do you think Google knowing your video watching preference is dangerous? For me I don't care if Google knows my music and video preferences in general. If I'm watching things that I don't want Google to know I use Newpipe on a VPN. But sensitive document uploaded to Google drive? Not anymore.
