Reddit doesn’t actually own any of the content, right? Neither do any of the contributors? Seems like a good way to fuck Reddit.

    So what you’re saying is, Reddit is fucking creators by not compensating them, but when you take that work and repost it without compensation, it’s ok?

    Besides, the great thing about Lemmy is that it’s not Reddit. It has a whole different vibe. I think it’s worth maintaining that.

      No that’s not what I’m trying to say. I’m saying that content creators on Reddit are already being fucked. The only perceivable benefit they get from Reddit is exposure. So I would argue that reposting their content on other platforms benefits them. It can also be done in a respectful and ethical way—providing attributions for example.
