So are you saying that your understanding is that what we write here on Lemmy is copyrighted, with authors holding the rights?

Yes, that's exactly it.

Services often do have:

you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, distribute, and display such user content

But, I don't know how that plays out in different jurisdictions, which license those services redistribute the content as, and so on. That's for the copyright lawyers to figure out.

Dude you are living in a dream world. You have the same thought process as sovereign citizens.

Ah gotcha; that's helpful. That's not been my understanding of this content, so I'll have to look into that, thanks.

I may be wrong as I'm not a lawyer, but that's just my understanding 🙂 Who knows. Have a good day!
