I think you can replace all social media with a decentralized version, except YouTube. Reason is cost and monetization.

Even if YouTube is questionable on privacy-YouTube have more of a product unlike social media where you are the product

As well as content creators

I feel like it's still crazy that YouTube share their ad revenue with their content creators. Granted it's not much but not even tiktok, Instagram nor twitch does that.
