I'm surprised so many people care about this... No one is making you use this product. If you don't like the product decisions, go use something else. Many creators post their content on Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok. Finally, you're also free to do something else unrelated to content consumption, like building something or reading a book.

I feel like google is using a variety of anti-competitive practices to make me use their product even when it's not in my best interest.

Go use something else? There is no replacement for YouTube. If you think Instagram and TikTok are YouTube competitors then you clearly don't know what you're talking about.

They're only competitors in the sense that they compete for human attention. Long-form content, tutorials, etc. are non-existent on the platforms you mentioned.
