Marketing styles it as macOS nowadays, but anyway the modern way is when you are watching a video, click on the button that makes it pop out.

For example this clip on Vimeo https://vimeo.com/channels/staffpicks/361821058 in the bottom-right, one-to-last button is the popout button. The clip will now hover over all other windows. Other websites have other buttons, or have this in the generic right-click menu. And some simply don't offer this.

If you're asking for a way to keep any window on top in macOS, there isn't a way. The above also works in Safari, but not in Firefox.
