- Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling.
- Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including all information that can initiate conversations when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible.
- Avoid controversial topics (e.g. politics or societal debates).
- Stay calm: Don’t post angry or to vent or complain. We are a place where everyone can forget about their everyday or not so everyday worries for a moment. Venting, complaining, or posting from a place of anger or resentment doesn't fit the atmosphere we try to foster at all. Feel free to post those on !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

Heyyyy you can't copy my meme make your own
Is this a joke?
Wdym
Feel free to disagree, but there cannot be any reasonable expectation of copyright or ownership retainment of data that a person posts on the internet, especially when there has been made no such claims within the data itself - such as putting a watermark on image - or in the surrounding environment - such as claiming ownership in the image description or the likes.
On the other hand, it is more than reasonable to think that people who view your post and my comment on it will quite immediately realize that my comment was made by copying and editing the image that you initially posted. It should also be quite obvious that my comment on your post is was an attempt at making any kind of statement or claim regarding ownership or originality of the data in question, but rather an acknowledgement of the fact that I found your image engaging and entertaining.
With all that said, since you did claim ownership and protested against my use of your image, I will:
Please advise! 🙂
Iam sorry don't delete it I overreacted it wasn't made by me
It wasn't even made by you, but you reported the above comment anyway for "stealing" your meme?
When did I report shi and why do you care
I'm a mod, if you didn't notice...
No need to apologize! It was a relevant question for today's Internet!
So true
I don't think they were being serious
