Those background images could really use some artist attributions.
Can't have contributions when the images likely aren't even under a license that would allow use like this. I guess it's better not to say where they are from and hope people don't notice... The image of the girl lying on the floor is a screencap from the "Whisper of the Heart" movie. I doubt it's licensed. Various "lo-fi" YouTube channels used to do that as well, but got copyright strikes and changed to original art…
> Dimitri chose the character of Shizuku Tsukishima from the Studio Ghibli film Whisper of the Heart as the face of the channel, with footage of her studying or writing used in the streams. When the popularity of the streams ultimately led to some getting taken down for copyright violations, Dimitri decided to maintain the Ghibli-esque aesthetic but with an original character and put out a call for artists.
I actually have been working on something related but not exactly - mine is more generally a Youtube video zapper. Works well for music and also for other genres, was a fun quarantine project.
Check it out! https://zapper.video/

Video may be cheap, too: h.264 or WebM are relatively low cost on even reasonably modern devices.
Video cheaper than animated gif?

Haha, I built a super similar thing last year with even a super similar url ( https://lofi.chat )! https://lofi.chat/r/Hacker-news-310e9120 Good vibes only

It's the current visitors. I liked the word "room" to make you feel like you're in good company, but maybe it'd be better to just write "live now". What do you think?
I'd go for "listening now" or "currently listening". I also assumed the "room" was the what I see now is called "station". Counting the listeners in a station instead of visitors site-wide would be kinda neat though, and "room" works well then I think. edit: or maybe "in the cafe" for site-wide visitors? That should be clear and has the same feeling as "room".
"In the room XXX" really confused me because I thought I were in room XXX. (There's at least a colon missing after "room"!)

Great point. While not everything is appropriate to share in response to someone else's "Show HN" post, I've definitely seen (and appreciated) others linking similar projects. It usually is in the context of saying something like: - I tried this too, and can appreciate that you solved way harder things than we expected to have to deal with - I had this idea too but like your execution I think it's very fitting, espec…
Cool project! :) Is there any way to link to rooms & songs directly?
It would be really cool if the URL changed depending on the station, so that copy-pasting it just works.
