It’s YouTube music, which is showing popular “podcasts” on its explore page. Must be just because it’s popular because nothing in my algo on either youtube or YouTube music would suggest this shit.

    Just pirate your music. It’s more ethical than giving money to Google or Spotify. If you want to support some musicians, buying a single piece of merch probably makes them more money than a lifetime of listening to them on a streaming service.

      Money isnt that relevant directly, streaming is good for optics, you get a lot of streams you are more likely to get live shows and have your music pushed out to others that will go there? It’s good for discoverability and credibility.
