As a regular lofigirl listener, i wish youtube dies a painful death. Their claiming/strike system is bringing so much pain to content creators.
As for now, you can also listen on https://lofigirl.bandcamp.com.

In one way, it reads, “if you break the law enough, we’ll disable your account. Naughty naughty!” But then when you look at how the system works, almost anyone can just claim they own a copyright with absolutely no proof which has massive implications to your account whether that means you can have your account deactivated or (even more scary) you can be demonetized or have penalties (aka royalties) paid to the “original” creator.
This whole thing feels like a combination of the Salem witch trials, a social credit score, and The Hunger Games disgusted as a egalitarianism.

It's such a good thing this is the only mistake they made, and no legitimate users have ever been taken down by this mechanism!

What is happening to Youtube? I can't even find related content on it anymore (try to watch some song or talk and all the recommendations are about some conspiracy rabbit hole it wants to take me into).
Why has no one competed with them so far in a meaningful way? You would think this would be right up Netflix's alley.
