[Duscussion] Post licening to kneecap threads putting ads next to our content. - eviltoast

Ive seen that pixelfed and peertube have the ability to add a licence to content. I think this would be great for everyone so we can get ahead of threads and have collective bargaining power when they inevitable put our content between ads.

Heres the pixelfed duscyssion on the issue: https://github.com/pixelfed/pixelfed/issues/13 Here is mastadons discussion: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/20079

Im not sure if lemmy has a discussion yet i may create one later if one doesnt already exist.

    Sync and maybe some other apps already put ads next to posts. Ironically this post specifically had an ad next to it.

    It would be so funny if commercial clients would then have to hide non-commercial content. So much for tearing down walls and building bridges…
