Until the first few break down and you need to buy new ones, just to realize they are different from the ones you have by now (or discontinued outright).

Total Commander. Has been for two decades on PC and near one on Android. Not beautiful, but so useful.
It doesn’t check the stuff it generates other than on grammatical and orthographical errors. It’s not intelligent or has knowledge outside of how to create text. The text looks useful, but it doesn’t know what it contains in a way something intelligent would.
Which means it does need outside help (even passive help).
I’m totally a bot
Lots of drugs started out as medicine. And heroin is a great medicine, still used in this sense today.
So? Reddit has about 10 sizeable Subs that are just a variation of “Ask Any and All Questions”. That’s not even counting speciality subs like “MedicalQuestions” or “ITQuestions” or “DermatologyQuestions” or “AskTrangender”. Or the different language ones like “FragReddit” (German). In the end 1-3 will become the major ones, all will be a bit different and everyone will find the ones they like most.
Sans the tomatoes (from the Americas after all) Pizza has been around at least 2000 years ago: https://www.reuters.com/lifestyle/pizza-painting-found-ancient-roman-ruins-pompeii-2023-06-27/
We also have a written account of Persian soldiers using their shields to bake a flatbread with cheese and dates on top from the 6th century BC, which one could count as Pizza.
It has been around for 10 years and 4 phones by now, and only gaining in popularity and market share. No reason to predict an early demise yet. The Fairphone 1 controversially only received 3 years of updates, but since then it’s 5 years.
Both Samsung and Google give you 5 years of updates (at least 3 major Android releases + 2 years of Security updates) for a few years now.
It’s an ongoing debate, but it true Communist/Socialist style there is nobody out there that fullfils the criteria to stand as equal. Maybe at times the Mansheviks at Lemmygrad might be seen as nearly as good as the Bolsheviks of Hexbear. /s
But you need to host the videos on your instance and foot the bandwith bill, which will prevent it from taking off like Youtube. Too expensive for anyone outside of gigantic monopolistic companies.
It relies on peer-to-peer, not hosting.
BTW: there is also a Facebook equivalent (Friendica, GNU Social, Dispora and Hubzilla), a Instagram equivalent (Pixelfed) and a Instant Messenger (Matrix)
Biggest German server and good community.
Replace? No. Be a valiable second option? Sure. Like in the early 2000 when you had dozens of major forums for certain topics. Something Awful, GameFAQs, Digg, Slashdot, 4chan, NeoGAF… It‘s not a natural law that there has to be one service having 95 % of the discussion market locked up.
Money is tighter since the inflation affects VC and stupid money flowing in. Stock prices are not going up, people have no money to play with (see the death of NFTs at the same time, the definition of a stupid investment).
Lemmy, KBin and Mastodon fullfil all the needs for online news outside of dedicated news sites for me by now, Twitter is something I haven’t used directly for months now.
The moment this shit appears on mine I‘m buying an Apple TV.
