"Just stop using YouTube instead of waging an ad blocker blocker war and use other services"
Okay. What services? Peertube? A network with an amount of traffic that is a rounding error compared to YouTube's and has no monetization strategy?
Nebula? The video streaming service that is invite only and which sources new talent to invite specifically from YouTube? The service that has set up a model where it is dependent on YouTube and can only really survive if YT is thriving?
Vimeo? The site that has sent creators of popular videos bills of thousands of dollars for "taking up too much bandwidth?"
Which video streaming service is viable for new and unknown video makers building an audience and established ones who do it for a living and everyone in between? You can't answer that question because no such service currently exists
