From my experience going back to 1990 everything is actually MORE controlled by the majors than ever before. Its so easy for google to bury you, all the so called "discovery" platforms are a pay to play scheme. Once pay to play became the norm in southern california the music scene died and that was back in the early 90s even before the internet.

That's too bad. It's a big world. There are a lot of small-mid-sized artists making a living with smaller labels.

Not everybody needs to be the next Lizzo or else its abject failure.
