We(Lemmy users) are adblock users and are tired of capitalism that ruined Reddit.
All of us didn’t come here to look at ads again or to entertain capitalist dreams of embedding ads everywhere.
My recommendation is clear, let’s ban watermarked comics and work towards ad free community.
At the end, music don’t have watermarks and neither do art. So why should comics have watermarks?
Linking to the source should be the primary way of attribution.


Sigh
I want ad free art.
It’s not an ad. You aren’t paid. You aren’t being fed the information in an incorrect context.
Do you also rip the covers off your books and black out the author’s name?
Do you yank the labels off your soup cans because they have the vendor’s name?
Artist names/signatures are not ads.
Then go make it yourself, or use an AI to pretend you have the talent to make art, and then you can choose to not put a name on it.
Oh, can AI generate comics?
If you want ad free art, make your own.
