  Lyrics taken from other sites, and lyrics that are often wrong.

  Why is Youtube’s monetization strategy so… petty?

    It’s just standard capitalism. Find something that people value and monetize it.

    Anyway, brb, gotta go refill my airtank.

  Yeah, was gonna post about this a few days ago. They literally blur the fucking lyrics:

  A screenshot of YouTube Music's Lyrics tab. The first three lines of the song are shown, the rest is blurred out. There's a button that says You habe 0 views remaining. Unlock lyrics with premium

  It’s been like this for about 3 days or so now, so I don’t even know when it refreshes and gives you lyrics again. The lyrics they just pull from other sites and sometimes isn’t even synced right 🙄

  I guess I really just need to move to Navidrome now. I have the Arr suite set up and everything…

    Pipepipe, Tubular still working fine. Metrolist (ytmusic specific) had some issues yesterday but it’s fine now so it may have been my vpn’s location getting blocked
