I didn't know Soundcloud was European. Been using them for a while, my only complaints are: lack of ability to report much of anything, lack of moderation, and a system that incentivizes poor quality uploads of popular songs to avoid automated detection.

If you let it autoplay after picking a popular song you might get a list of bangers or you might get sped up trash uploads with an unfortunate high pitch tone that I imagine must have been outside of the uploader's hearing range. Occasionally it plays some guy reading phonetic scripts like he's just learning to read for the first time for an hour, but it made it into the list because it's titled after a beatles song.

SoundCloud might be the single worst music platform out there, and that's saying a lot given that Spotify exists. The audio quality is awful, everything is expensive and they double and triple dip artists and listeners. Yet despite the exploitative monetisation, they don't seem to actually make any money and have almost gone bankrupt several times.
