Rumble might or might not break through to mainstream.

Vimeo already works beautifully and is clean in every way AFAIK.

Except you can't monetize your content and in fact you have to pay to post in the first place plus you can't post (at least) gaming related content.

Proof that you can: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/effectivejavaee

Except Vimeo is not really competing with YouTube, and has a strict restrictions on the type of videos it accepts.

Peertube etc in a third.

Self-hosting by media companies in a fourth.

Etc.
