What's the legality of copy/pasting or rewording interesting guides and resource posts from Reddit? - eviltoast

Let’s say you find a subreddit with a very interesting guide that contains no private information.

What’s the legality of copy / pasting that text over here? And if it is reworded, manually or with chat gpt?

The assumption here is that it would be done manually without scraping.

Edit: it looks like Reddit does not help the copyright and there wouldn’t be massive issues if we created a community to copy over posts with useful guides and tutorials. I can’t create it since I’m not on lemmy.world and wouldn’t have time to moderate it, but I would contribute if a community like that existed.

    Credit content creators, link to original sources, and frame your copypasta as an analysis (like you’re citing specific areas of text to add to it in some way). You could even group together various related posts on a subject as a comparative piece.
