replace lemmy.world with whatever else you think is a better choice for it

Clarification: reposting here refers to reposting done by another person who was not the original poster

Why though?

We can just subscribe to the community on lemmy.ml, there's no point reposting when it's already there ready to federate.

Because cm0002 is reposting content without prior permission, it made me think about it, people got a real hate boner for lemmy.ml but maybe they have differing opinions for reposting?

"Reposting content without prior permission"?

Do you think that people generally need to ask permission before reposting something (non-OC, anyhow) that was shared on a public forum?

Lulz. I just stole your comment. It's mine now.

NOOOOO I'M GOING TO SUE YOU IN LEMMY COURT

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

Lemmy Court sounds like a fun community idea.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Ha yeah. Like a Fedidrama comm but funnier.

Could sue people with silly opinions, drag their butts to Lemmy Court (and probably get dragged yourself too)

Lulz. I just stole your comment. It’s mine now.

Yes I will download your car too.

I reckon that this topic is - at least partly - about my desire to not have my OC insta reposted by them. So it is about OC.

I don't mind the normal cross post, but this half automated reposting, with the stated goal to reduce the already measly interaction i get posting niche stuff, that i don't like. But apparently, at least according to @[email protected] , I need to see a mental health expert for taking issue with that.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago
  1. They did not falsely claim to be the OC creator, and they credited you.

  2. This is a public forum. If you intend to make money off of it later, you shouldn't be freely posting the images publically without any watermarking. I don't know what jurisdiction would apply here on this federated forum, but to give an example of one of the most litigated jurisdictions, the USA:

Copyright exists automatically in an original work of authorship once it is fixed, but a copyright owner can take steps to enhance the protections. The most important step is registering the work. Registering a work is not mandatory, but for U.S. works, registration (or refusal) is necessary to enforce the exclusive rights of copyright through litigation. Timely registration also allows copyright owners to seek certain types of monetary damages and attorney fees if there is a lawsuit, and also provide a presumption that information on the registration certificate is correct.

Copyright registration also provides value to the public overall. It facilitates the licensing marketplace by allowing people to find copyright ownership information, and it provides the public with notice that someone is claiming copyright protection. It also provides a record of this nation’s creativity.

Perhaps you should register your works if you are serious about it.

  1. Crossposting doesn't re-upload, it still links to your original image. This is essentially someone finding your website, and admires an image, then share the link to the image. If you go to your profile and delete it, its also gone from the crosspost.

  2. @[email protected] For news articles, links or even c/asklemmy questions, its totally fine. For OC content, I'd probably just try to not piss off people. Like it's not morally wrong or anything, I get that you intent is just wanting to share, but like... if the original creator explicitly asked you not to... I'd just not.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Thank you. I certainly don't have the ambition to make money off off my content, I just want to share it and have fun without being bothered by this person and have my content dragged into political obsessions. That's it. It would be nice if they could just leave me alone, but they don't.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

Crosspost it yourself and take his job away.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I may cross post whenever I see fit, sure, but I have no interest to have my content in our no-life-bot's toxic repost cloaca.

[-] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

I don't mind the normal cross post, but this half automated reposting

FYI, it's not automated, the most automation I use is notifications. Everything else is done completely manually. And crossposting is easy, a notification comes in and I can take care of it in most cases right away wherever I'm at because, ya know, smartphones LOL it just takes me a few minutes lmao

Also, you're slinging insults at or about mods, comms, admins and whole instances that have nothing to do with it so maybe that's where they're coming from on that lol

[-] [email protected] -5 points 2 days ago

I said half automated. I am slinging insults at you, and the mod, not instances wtf, that is your life's mission. I sling insults at you because you ignored my polite requests to not please repost my content there.

He also steals crow pictures which I’ve reported to every crow picture stealing authority imaginable and all I get are welfare calls from mental health experts.

[-] [email protected] -3 points 2 days ago

Very funny, right? That I don't want to have my pictures insta reposted, with the stated goal to reduce the already measly interaction i get posting niche stuff? You thought that was so funny you drew them that avatar. Bravo.

Everything's got to be about politics here.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago

They stole that crow picture from me.

I’ve been reporting it to anyone who will listen and the only things I get back are what’s Lemmy and why is a crow wearing a pirate hat?

We’re not enemies we’re brothers bonjour.

[-] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Haha. At least you have some good humour and you drew that pirate crow quite nice. Cheers brother.

Wait what did they do? I'm new

[-] [email protected] 9 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

the mods who run it (and also created the lemmy software which makes this whole thing more complex) love stalin and mao (theres a reason why its Lemmy.ml and not .com, the ml stands for marxist-leninist) and putin and often silence opinions they disagree with on their platform. They use their instance to spread their propaganda about authoritarism and communism and while their aren't the only instance to do that, the other ones weren't run by the Lemmy devs, so other instances defederated from them - I'm talking about places like hexbear and lemmygrad

theres people who've been on Lemmy longer than me and have spent time documenting some of the more insane mod actions and views of the .ml admins and Im gunna go find that right now

edit: ok I found it, here's a list of stuff the admins there have done: https://lemmy.world/post/29072279 and here's the community about documenting stuff I got the post from https://lemmy.world/c/[email protected]

posting these as .world links because .ml has blocked them (which of course they did) so I don't then you can sub to that comm from your account

no problem!

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago
[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

This has made a lot of people angry, and has been widely regarded as a bad move.

[-] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

Those bastards!

[-] [email protected] -4 points 2 days ago

They were to the left of netanyahu. centrists don't like that.

.ml is the third instance that centrists have a problem with. When their constant whining gets them what they want and .world defederates from .ml, they'll pick another instance and start whining about that.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago

I'm sure the moment they defend from .ml after years of complaining about .ml after not doing the thing that would make them happy, dbzer0 will be the next on their chopping block of "Tankie Triad" or whatever the liberal echo chamber says.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 13 hours ago

conservatives don't like being reminded that people to their left exist.

until they lose an election and need someone other than themselves to blame.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Yup, and check [email protected] or my periodically updated recap post for why everyone!

[-] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago

Repost, no.

They should grow organically on nicer instances.

I try to unsubscribe ML communities when I find a decent alternative anywhere else.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 2 days ago

I don't mind when people crosspost.

[-] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Sure, why not. And they can do the same over to their side. And stealing certian content from Reddit would also be good.

I assume crossposts are handled properly by Lemmy's feeds? I don't think I've noticed duplicates much. My answer would change if not, because there's going to be no way to predict people's replication preferences.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 2 days ago

I have, before, posted one item that I thought was interesting on [email protected] to [email protected], as I know that beehaw.org has defederated from lemmy.world and the item was interesting and otherwise lemmy.world users wouldn't have seen it.

I don't think that I'd try to mirror the complete content of a community, though. I mean, different communities may have different interests.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

@[email protected] keep up the good work, hates are gonna hate, ignore their feelings lol.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

yeah for sure

the main reason i havent defederated is bc of how much stuff is from there
