  • maybe if everyone is telling you the same thing, it’s not us that’s wrong? food for thought.

    One, not everybody is telling me the same thing. I learned to do this from someone else here on Lemmy, and I’ve had others tell me that they like that I’m doing what I’m doing, and that its ok to do.

    Two, never heard anybody give a valid reason why I’m wrong, just that I’m wasting my time, or that they don’t like me doing it because it bothers them to see it, as if they want the Internet to format what they see to their personal tastes/likes.

    Three, its a single line of text that appears in a smaller font at the bottom/footer of a comment. If people are really getting bent out of shape over it, then maybe they need to do some self-interspection on their end.

    Four, if its not a smaller font line of text, and they seeing regular sized formatting text, then they need to talk to the developers of the client they are using, and ask them to support sub/superscript fonts. The web site client shows it just fine.

  • all due respect, but you are not a news entity and you will never know whether your license was honored, so i really don’t see the point. but like i said, you do you

    The point is to have protection for my content. I have the same rights under the law as ANYBODY ELSE. All are capable of licensing their content on social sites that protects themselves with Safe Harbor laws.

    As far as enforcement goes, that is not my job. If a law is not enforced doesn’t mean I don’t try to avail myself of the protections under the law. I don’t constantly audit my local police force to be sure that they are enforcing laws.

    I want my content to be available and used by open-source organizations, and I signal that via my license. Otherwise the default licensing (show nothing) does not allow them to do so.

    Finally, is it really worth your time (and all other citizens) to nag/harrass someone away from using the same laws that Corporations use to their benefit? I mean I point to an “Ask Lemmy” post often (here, let me do it again) where this has been hashed out already. You’re not saying anything new. But it seems like every individual still wants to recreate the conversation again, and again, and again, for SOME strange reason.
