Mastodon, easily Mastodon. I love it!

I’ve not seen this “waive moral rights or attribution” in any other site. It’s not in Twitter’s, it’s not in Facebook, I don’t think it’s even legal in a lot of jurisdictions (moral rights cannot easily be contracted away).

I loved Reddit, but after the API shenanigans and the doubling down I went sour… and then I read the latest TOS…

You also agree that we may remove metadata associated with Your Content, and you irrevocably waive any claims and assertions of moral rights or attribution with respect to Your Content.

i.e. whatever you post WE own forever and we never have to credit you. It’s so horrifyingly immoral.

It’s great for everyone with imposter syndrome! I used to fear I was too inexperienced, inept, unprofessional… but then this happened 😅
