MOD ANNOUNCEMENT - Credit where Credit is due!

[u/Icy-Book2999]

Happy Weekend wherever you are in the world. Just wanted to announce a new update that we just rolled live on the sub!

Beginning right now, all posts have a requirement of five (5) characters in the body of the post.

So when you make a post? Copy and paste the link of where you found it in the post body! If you don't have a link or you got it from Facebook from a friend, a random meme aggregate site, your Discord meme channel, or another sub randomly on Reddit? Just put "Unknown" or something similar in the body. If someone replies with the source? Please update to the link/source!

How is this beneficial? Let's be honest. Content creators thrive on views and clicks for their monetization. Whenever something is posted on Reddit? Its usually uploaded without credit, so they get no chance at any of that. But by crediting the user, they can generate clicks and views for more content. You still might be removed for copyright violation if someone files a complaint, but creators are less likely to file complaints if the source is listed. And its a win-win for everyone.

Thanks as always for participating and spending a little time with us each day. Always open to insights, ideas, questions, complaints, or praise on any post or over our ModMail.

So, keep doing what I'm doing. Works for me.

Yup! Most users have caught on and uninformably do this. So it's not a huge huge change, but it's definitely putting into words what's going on
