Won't matter. As soon as those alternatives get big enough, they'll either sell out or look for more ways to maximize profits. The Internet is wholely infected by corporations now. Just need better ways to beat them back somehow.
YouTube has never changed the way creators get paid without notice before so you're probably right everyone is safe. Google isnt pinching pennies and everything is fine
It still does matter because as long as enough people keep abandoning mature (rotten) corporations for the younger ones, the right and unignorable signal will be sent.
