This is an interesting one.

Do you think it's the listener's responsibility to choose a decentralised option, or purely the content creator's?

I would say this is 100% on the creator, not the listener.

It's the creator who's losing their business if they're booted by Spotify, the listener doesn't lose anything.

All they care about is how easy it is for them to listen.

You could then swap out podcast listener for every other type of content and ask the same question about who's responsibility it is to take the lead.

I'd still always say it's the content creator's responsibility because it's their business (even if it's a personal brand) that's at risk.

They have to be the ones to take the lead, not regular people who consume content because they just want it served to them in the most user friendly way possible.

Anyway, certainly an interesting discussion here :)
