To be fair, I think it just says that on YouTube, the misogynist trolls are very loud and particularly chatty.

Oh for sure. But that’s one of the biggest issues the community of social media is struggling with.

This is by far my favorite against the clock.
My fave ATC:
Truly from scratch and gets most of the track fleshed out. So groovy considering a 606 has no swing.

Youtube comments ≠ a community. They can be very funny sometimes though.
The only time I’ve ever felt like there was something social or constructive going on in the comments is either when it’s archive footage and the original creator/artist turns up and answers questions, or on 90s hardcore/jungle tunes where grown up ravers have searched for an old tune they loved and end up reminiscing together.

I was surprised to not see this yet:
when I realized it wasn’t ATC but some knockoff? What?
Anyway. Good stuff.
And then this:
I pray to god they do more experimental stuff like this.

I’d really like to see one where someone spends the first eight minutes making a cup of tea and tidying their desk, before browsing some kick drum samples for two minutes and then realising their time is up.

Kiefer’s is great and a fresh take on ATC. If you liked that one check out MNDSGN’s

That Novo Line video has been one of my favourites for a long time.

Let’s hope this topic does not bring the YT trolls here
i remember some really good ATC episode where the artist uses a monomachine to do an acid line, but haven’t been able to remember the name or find it again, probably from some years back, if anyone remembers
maybe?

Stopping the propagation and normalization of sexist harassment is bigger than a “logical” business decision.

yes, and that’s why I created my own subreddit for it! 
www.reddit.com/r/againsttheclock
but then one is in the position of spending time and effort creating value for Against the Clock, an entity that has already subtly rebuffed community contributions

Hmm. Pretty sure the intention was to stop nasty people from hurting the artists. I certainly don’t associate myself with the trolls, and I therefore don’t feel at all rebuffed.
Trolls are the focus, not the rest of the community. We should not forget that.
Disabling comments is not “subtly rebuffing” anything. It’s quite a firm statement, in my eyes. Especially if it is, as you suggest, a poor business decision.
