What are the best alternatives to YouTube, if any? And if there aren't any, why is there so little competition in this industry?



Streaming HD video is expensive, that's why similar services like Twitch are owned by Amazon or have some alternative way of providing the same service like Peertube.

How would you monetize it?


Same way that Youtube does, with advertising!


(I'm going to assume you're serious)

You'd need to operate at a loss for years and streaming video is not cheap.
