MODERATORS
id strongly prefer if the content was fully reposted/rehosted on fediverse with no credit or links back to reddit (or imgur)
since no one seems to want to do that, fuck those bots.
Not crediting the people who made the original posts just because you don't like the site they posted it on is pretty shitty imo
I don't believe in crediting people generally. the fact the content is specifically from reddit or imgur isn't the issue.
So you're the guy who crops the watermarks off webcomics
i don't recall ever doing that, but I would if I were posting comics and I felt the desire.
To each their own I guess but to me that's really weird behavior. Like scratching off a signature from a painting
what if the guy was a dickhead? or didn't want to be associated with it anymore? or I don't want to associate with them? or leaving the credit would change whether people agreed with the sentiment?
there are hundreds of good reasons
