If you're already using the most common places such as FB, Twitter, TikTok and Reddit then you're already ahead of the game. There's only so much you can do to spread the word. The next step should be to make your content better and better as you learn what works and what doesn't.
I'm primarily using a related forum, Facebook, and Instructables.

We have started doing that recently and it has helped us loads!
Facebook groups, instagram, TikTok, Facebook page, and another YouTube channel to features your channels! we have two one for long video and the other one just shorts YouTube video!!
I personally found non social media forums work well. I use a diy forum which generates a lot of traffic to my videos. This in turns bumps up the YT viewership.
I've been having some success using Pinterest and promoting the pins a little here and there. Not much, just $9-10 over 3 days. It's getting me increased views for sure. Good luck!
Also traditional media, not just online. Home mailers, magazines, newspapers, flyers people are still going outside and see things that are not just on the computer or phones. I did a postcard mailer that did really well and brought in TONS of new fans!
Engage with other content creators in the comments section of YouTube videos. Don't self-promote at all- just engage with users. Doing this will help you get your channel in front of more people that are already on YouTube.
You can also try social media platforms like @HeatherPsyD recommended.

I use Reddit and itΓÇÖs helped my channel quite a bit. Just find forums that fit in your niche and tell others about what you do and share your thumbnails / links so if theyΓÇÖre interested theyΓÇÖll take a look
You forgot to mention.. engage with creators within your niche!! Just engaging with any creator, can really be difficult on your channel.

I found that every time i shared links on reddit they always got rejected or banned from a group which was frustrating. So i just on our page on reddit.
Yeah! I found that too, then I just created my own groups. After awhile they grow! lol
I use other social sites and chat with other people on YouTube. It has gotten a few more extra views and subscribers.
I'm posting on various social networks and blogs like (Blogger, VK, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Reddit) trying to boost my videos.

Answer questions related to your last videos, drop the link to the video, create answer templates so that you can answer related questions too and place the link to your video in all of them, that's the best way to drive traffic.
hope this helps
