bench. dips/push ups have replaced it
Compound movements in low rep ranges. shyt was hell on my joints. I started by dropping deads, and then squats and my big upper 3 followed (bench, shoulder press, DB rows). I was finding myself approaching dead day and heavy bench day with dread. Now it aint a thang. I still do all those movements, just in the 8-10 rep range instead of 4-6 and 8-10.
What kind of set/rep range of each do you do in place of bench?
Upright rows
Squats with a barbell on my shoulders are about to get ditched in favor of a hip belt.
Pressure on spine no more.

You get old enough and lifting heavy enough that the risk reward isn't there
I've thrown away pretty much all machine movements (leg press, curls, back extensions, rows).
All my Lifts are either compound lifts or done with dumbell/barbells.
Only machines I use are the elliptical, C2 Rower, Treadmill, Ladder Climber.
