Those definitely work for directly addressing someone, but I'm also thinking of the third-person way "bro" is used, i.e. "that person is a bro"

that person is a mate / friend, I guess. Or I'm tight with that person.

sometimes "yo" works as a replacement, but might be too different in meaning

sib works fine imo

I like 'sib' and hope as many of these words as is possible catch on.

Nobody'd know what I was saying if I said 'sib' here though. Maybe I can start!

I say 'human' sometimes. Like, Hey human! How you doing?

Sameee. It's the only good gender-neutral one, jajaja.
I'm sure you rock it well enough to sound good =w=
I've had someone say that I was one of the only USAmericans they know who can say mate without sounding like an asshole. It touched my heart lol
