Looney “Toons” is the stupidest one.

It was always a pun on toons by spelling it “Tunes” and because music is extremely prominent for it.

You always were such a kidder Steve.

Assume they don’t want to and can’t be corrected, because there’s a 99% chance that’s exactly the case.

Correct them once and move on, last say doesn’t mean shit when they’re wrong.

and in case you are wrong, acknowledgement goes a long way. be the example, but don’t expect it from anyone else.

they probably ran out of gas

Lemmy has been a cesspool of uncited posts since its inception, what makes you think it’s gonna change now just cuz some clown keeps snipping off artist/creator names on memes and comics.

I go to a channel for anime art and I open a post and the “source” is fucking Xcancel or Danbooru, an image board, both of which have fuck-all to do with* actually supporting* the artist. Thankfully, I know how to navigate that site to find the actual source, or at the very least the artist’s socials. But the average user likely doesn’t.

I do hope that changes, but it’s kinda too late in the game to start calling it out, when most of the stuff on Lemmy is already uncredited.
