Are there any good YouTube alternatives?
https://d.tube/ is one which seems vaguely decentralized, though its underlying steem and ipfs platforms are naïve "do the first thing which comes to mind" systems. I have zero confidence in the robustness of these systems, and it's not even a "perfect is the enemy of good" situation, since dtube is also pretty janky. It's disappointing, though I guess there just aren't enough people interested in this stuff to put enough man-hours into it.
Dtube is not really a viable alternative and I say that as a massive fan of the Steem platform in general.
You cannot watch videos that are older than 7 days and the underlying system for uploading and automatically converting videos leaves much to be desired.
I think LBRY is doing a much better job in that regard, even though monetization is still somewhat of a problem.
There you can instantly back up your entire Youtube account and receive LBRY credits for it, depending on how many Youtube subscribers you have.
You can easily watch older videos (contrary to Dtube) & people can tip video creators with the free LBRY credits they receive.
Mind you, LBRY is created as a protocol, any service, app or website can make use of LBRY. It's completely open-source as well.

Saw LBRY being discussed on politics and society BTT section. The goods things it should help people more aware of LBRY, and able to grasp the potential of LBRY protocol, not to mention Youtube become excessive in demonization, and censorship.
As the team keeps on improving their services, they should look into some of the feedback from the reviews of their app.
Currently, I can say it is fairly decent though there are some clients who are not satisfied with your services, and that's normal.
I've read one customer saying this review -
We all know that most apps in google play really ask permission to our personal files, and sometimes I don't install it as well.
But if I really need that app like Grab, I have no choice but install.
Maybe, explain to your clients why you need to do that action and explain it really well.
