> As a society, we may need a platform where educational/government institutions can upload content (with content warnings, if necessary) because Youtube is a terrible fit for content like this.

These institutions are big enough to host their own videos - we don't need a new platform, they just need to spin up a server and to pay for their own bandwidth.

If you trust Google to provide your video hosting at a pricetag of £0 this is what you get... You are on their platform, with their rules, where their algorithm is judge, jury and executioner.
