And by "not many" you really mean zero competitors.

(before you ask: Vimeo is getting sold to an enshitification company)

Those "zero" include: Rumble, Odysee, Dailymotion, Twitch, Facebook watch... etc.

And a decent list here: https://ideaexplainers.com/video-sites-like-youtube/

Twitch does live streaming but recently severely limited the extent of free hosting for archived content.

Not actually heard of the first two, what's their USP?

Rumble and Odysee and populated with crazy ragebaiting rightwingers, conspiracy theorists, and pseudo-libertarians.

Twitch has the issues the other commenter described, and both Twitch and Facebook are owned by billionaires who are actively collaborating with the current authoritarian regime. Facebook in particular is a risk space for actually exercising free speech and giving coherent critiques of authority.

Dailymotion is... maybe okay? As a company it seems like it's on life support. There's a "missing middle" between the corporate highly produced content that's distributed across all platforms and being a long tail dumping ground. I did find things like university lectures there, but there isn't creators actually trying to produce content for Dailymotion like there is on YouTube.

So, just like Youtube, then?

Proportionally speaking, there's a much higher concentration.
