While I have revanced on my phone and smarttube on my chromecast, the last time I watched a youtube video for an extended amount of time was two month ago. I did open those apps a few weeks ago, but only to see if youtube finally blocks them. So yeah, I guess I can quit youtube cold turkey now.

No, not really
I couldn't and I would be happy to pay. The reason I don't is because of all the unethical shit Google has done and the fact the will keep rasing their price to squeeze more money out of viewers and kill competition.
Probably one of the harder things that I could do. It's a replacement for TV so I could try and slot in TV but I think it would be frustrating to not have the copious amounts of content
TV is simply not there. Some YouTube channels are about a topic that's so niche that there's nothing similar on TV.
Yes hypothetically but only if the youtubers I actually care about have content elsewhere as well. Which is some but not many
Not really. Most of the content I watch is from there, from tech stuff to history and current news
