2 months agoThe Indie Web website up there actually has protocols to do most of what people do for social media, in exactly that structure. It’s enough of a pain to set up that I don’t see it becoming normal, but the amount that I’ve set up for my website at least works…
I’d say to ignore the platform licensing and just make sure that the license appears in the media itself (which it should, anyway, in case anybody finds it randomly) and marked in descriptions.
YouTube seems interesting, because there’s so much garbage listed as CC-BY that almost certainly doesn’t have any legitimate permission for it, and I’ve never found actual Creative Commons content through that route, so that probably informs my “just ignore it” thinking…
