Emote licensing #16

Open FFY00 opened 1 year ago

FFY00 commented 1 year ago

How should we handle licensing?

I think we should have a license field on the upload page, and probably select CC BY-SA 4.0 by default.

For emotes with unknown creators, we should have an "Unknown" field.

Yeah I think default behaviour should be twitch account selection, with an unknown option, and options to add other links to the artist. Also a field to just type whatever if for example you only know the discord username of the creator or smth like that.

As for licensing I say fuck IP, emotes are like language and art in that they evolve and are all derivative, but if we have to have a license field I think that's a good default option. Ngl tho I don't know all that much about licensing and how it relates to IP and stuff so Devin or Matt might be better people to ask about this, since they have a lot of experience and don't have the same capitalist brainrot that normies might.
