I like the mandate that CBC broadcasts need to be available in the hinterlands so all Canadians can be connected.

As someone who grew up in NYS, and spent just about every summer of his life camping lakeside in The Rideau Valley area, and who absolutely loathes the orange turd his idiot populace elected... Again...I very badly want one of the CBC test pattern shirts. Shipping is more than the cost of the shirt, however, so I guess I'm going to have to suck it up and wait for this stupid administration to be replaced three years from now. 🫤

When the buy Canadian movement started I cancelled all of my streaming services, and went back to sailing the high C’s, I use a pihole so that I do not see ads on my internet stuff. I use Unwatched to watch youtube so that I am not paying Google with my eyeballs or wallet. I knew I was hurting CBC by watching their shows through their app with my pihole and watching their news segments with my youtube setup so I subscribed to CBC gem. Sure it does not cost as much as their swag but it is a reoccurring payment I give them.

I tried looking up "Unwatched" and I couldn't find anything... Is it only available on Apple?

[–] Evkob@lemmy.ca 8 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

Unwatched is Apple-only.

If you're looking for similar stuff for other platforms, FreeTube is great on desktop, and Tubular is my Android YT app of choice.

Similar to Tubular, I use PipePipe, a fork of NewPipe. I can't live without it.

I was about to post about the small bricks and mortar gift shop that sells CBC swag only to find out it closed years ago :(. I still have the CBC rainbow butterfly logo magnet I got there with this logo :

[–] Chip_Rat@lemmy.world 4 points 13 hours ago

I loved that logo. Thanks for the reminder I wonder if I still have that pin....
