    It's soo weird, right? Like...what an utterly mad hill to die on. It's really not a difficult or unreasonable request.

    I like your username, by the way. RuBisCO has gotta be one of my top 10 favourite proteins (and probs top 5 favourite enzymes)

      You are correct.

      The post is pointing out the difference between attribution and advertisement.

        English is my first language and you have me second guessing myself.
        Citations are typically used for sources in academic papers or Wikipedia.
        Quotes often get misattributed to various incorrect historical figures.
        Accreditation is probably the word I should have used, but attribution is what I was seeing in comments the most.
        Also, to me accreditation sounds like something a university or a mortgage bond would seek, not so much an artist, but honestly I don't know for sure.

        Ramble aside, yes, they essentially mean the same thing.

          sorry english is not my first language. What is the difference? Attribution and citing is both giving who made it or is it not?

          OP is an idiot. Attribution is a good form of advertising, but because we all sacrificed our wits to the altar of anti consumerism, we must say that all and any form of advertisement is bad.

          The only way through this cognitive dissonance is to say attribution is not advertisement.

            To find an artist's signature or a comic's website URL to be an advertisement is the clown opinion being joked about here.

            Shaming plagiarists and encouraging proper citation before posting to a public platform are the objectives.

            "Useless to the artist" is a post of their work that doesn't link back to them.

                That likely helps artists the most, but the bare minimum is not cropping out (or digitally erasing) their signature, whatever that signature happens to be.

                c/comicstrips has seen an increase in the number of posts where the original artwork was defaced in the name of 'ad blocking'.

                  Then you can buy the art nobody is stopping you

                  Says the person trying to make it harder for me to find the artist that I should be buying from.

                    How to tell everyone you haven't made a single thing in your worthless life:

                    Artists are supposed to make art because they feel they have to

                    Yeah yeah ad hominem because you dont like my opinion, i was a lead singer in a bad for three years by the way did about a hundred shows, and i never did it for the money. You should try making art without worrying about the money it's quite liberating.
