What is the best social media platform for niche content creators?

Like it or not, youtube still has the biggest audience and the best discovery algorithm (even with it's flaws).

And, even with this latest change, still pays better than other platforms.

Actually Nebula pays their creators better.

Sure but how do you get on Nebula?

As far as I know it comes from having an established YouTube presence first.
