I'm ditching YouTube and cancelled my Premium account because they recently purged videos and accounts of Palestinian human rights organizations, and I'm generally trying to boycott the US and Google further.

I'm switching to podcasts to give myself something to listen to instead. I found CBC Podcasts and TVO Podcasts. I also found this Lemmy thread from 2 years ago, but I'd figure it's time to ask the community again.

What are your suggestions for Canadian or non-US podcasts?

Newpipe for android if you have one, ublock for pc. Still using it, but they don't get money. Not podcasts, but, it's what I use.

I'm glad options exist to give YouTube less money, but I guess I'm more interested in reducing their dominance, both at large on the Internet, and also in my life. People go to YouTube because it's where their favourite creators are, so if we signal to creators that we're moving away, creators will choose to publish elsewhere too. Of course, I'm under no illusion that this will happen quickly, but hey we're on the Fediverse, so we already know that :)

I think that more creators and users would leave if there was a platform that was similar but higher quality. Unfortunately, they have quite the monopoly. Wish it was broken. Maybe someday.
