Looks like it was a combo of both, reading about it further. https://www.rd.com/article/americans-british-pronounce-zee/
Regional dialects at first, but then the dictionary declared it the official pronunciation and shortly after the song was produced, which would have spread the use from being regional and encouraged homogenization

Americans used to pronounce Z the same as the rest of the world until someone wrote the ABC song and decided it needed to rhyme with V, and then an entire generation grew up saying it wrong and it stuck. At least that is what I’ve heard in Canada.
It’s also why there is a Canadian version of Sesame street where the last verse doesnt rhyme because up until the late 90s our TV censors used to straight up nope things that would cause kids to be confused about how things should be pronounced.
Routhinator@startrek.websiteto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•My world is so much better because of immigrantsEnglish7·7 days agoPan fried shawarma is something Im still trying to get used to. The Lebanese Shawarma places in Ottawa all stack the chicken on a stick rotisserie and it is cooked exactly like the lamb or beef kebabs, they then slice thin portions off of it just the same.
It wasnt until I moved out west that I ever saw Shawarma done any other way, and everything out here has been disappointing by comparison.

Why many Canadians are digging in their heels | CBC NewsEnglish0·7 days agoNot just the threats, but the deafening silence from Americans in general about it (outside Lemmy) is something we will not forget for a generation.

Routhinator@startrek.websiteto Canada@lemmy.ca•Canadians upset Carney caved to Trump over digital services taxEnglish0·16 days agoCanadians pay it and are hopefully turned to other options, smaller companies, and hopefully Canadian ones. That would drive Amazon’s business down, and that hurts the billionaires more than the tax.

Additionally most of the droids I have bought that have a jack are the perfect thickness in my mind. Weighted enough to stay in my hand and take a couple dozen drops without accident. Plus the headphone jack is used as an antenna and provides radio capabilities so I can listen to local news instead of whatever the tech industry wants to feed me. Which is a nice option.
