Are collaborations still a strong growth method today, or less effective than before?
 
Collaborations are still powerful when the audiences genuinely overlap, because trust transfers faster than growth built alone
 
I'm not sure what kind of collaboration you're referring to. But if it's collabration with influencers or KOLs, this can help with better brand development thanks to their reputation, but it can also easily lead to the brand being overshadowed and developing less effectively because viewers' attention is focused on them instead of the brand.
 
As far as Youtube goes, collaboration is a growth method, as YouTube introduced a "Collaboration" feature allowing a channel to tag up to five partners on a single video upload. This signals the algorithm to treat the video as relevant to the audiences of all involved channels.
 
They are still good; but for example, its important that the collabs you do are with people that are posting similar content so the users can relate to some degree.
 
Collaboration is still an effective method depending on how you use it. If for example you collaborate with another person on Pinterest you can both send traffic to a specific money site that it's owned either by you or your collaborator and then both profit from the monetization of your audience through affiliate products/ads etc. Or if your collaborator has a good affiliate product you can send traffic to his/her site and he/she can give you a percentage of the total sales.
 
It will certainly be more effective if we divide the work, delegate tasks to those with higher expertise, reduce time, and achieve better results. This is possible if we allocate resources correctly and thoroughly research our partners.

Yes, collaborations still work well, especially when they feel authentic and reach the right audience. They can help both sides grow by sharing exposure and building trust.
