I honestly don't know how anyone can really compete with YouTube. Video encoding, hosting, and streaming are all relatively expensive services. Remember that YouTube has each video in at least a dozen different formats. The costs to deal with all this is insane.
YouTube probably has a bunch of custom proprietary tools at this disposal to make encoding less costly. They also then leverage Google's worldwide massive storage and hosting network, which on paper can allow them to hide costs incurred for running YouTube.
Even with advertising, I don't see how Alphabet isn't losing money every day with YouTube. Every competing service either doesn't have as many formats, doesn't have as high quality, doesn't have as good streaming, has limits on duration and amount of videos per account, and so on.
These even remotely compete with YouTube? Sure there's tons of video services out there, but to my knowledge, nothing else offers everything that YouTube offers.
I don't think you need **everything Youtube offers to get off the ground and sustain exponential growth. Just cover the major bells and whistles (which Rumble and Getrr have) and the site should be fine. Then you can grow from there.
quality over quantity. youtube is expensive only because it is a data mining and advertising platform first.
content and media platforms, paid for by the creators, users, and publishers are stable and perform just as good. consider vimeo - but without the censorship.

I do wish I could figure our with Rumble how to reverse or advance a video like can be done with YT by pressing the left or right arrows.
The content is drying up and the content actually growing is getting removed/banned
What do thots and conservatives have in common?
They're both getting removed/banned from youtube and social medis
