1 year agoI see nothing unethical about it. Reddit is mainly a link aggregator which means most of the content is not actually hosted by them. In these cases Reddit merely posts links to sites that host said content, and they usually credit the original creators if it’s not apparent from the post itself. I see nothing wrong with crossposting from Reddit as long as you also include the username of the poster if it’s a text post, or using the same source citations as they do.
Edit: others have pointed out using archive.org. I’d recommend that as well.
I bought an ironing board and an iron when I moved into my current home thinking “yeah, I have some shirts, I’ll iron them when I need them”.
That was 3 years ago. The ironing board was put into a corner out of sight and the iron is still in its original packaging, unopened to this day. I’m trying to justify my purchase with “better to have it and not need it than the other way around”.
