No. Absolutely not. Watermarked memes are the scourge of online culture, no matter what you watermark it with.

No.
Yeah, this is silly 9gag stuff. Not like people on here don't take memes from other parts of the internet too. In the end, these things are supposed for sharing.
Love this idea. Except I think the watermark should be much much bigger and block the view of the entire meme. Ah yes much better
Has the corporate internet warped peoples minds so much they now think they themselves need to restrict usage of their stuff?
Not restrict, but sign.
Did you like this joke? Look here for more. Oh no, you are fediversed now, oh well.
We're not a cult, man
Exactly. We are totally not a cult.
But I am viewing this on kbin! Better adapt Google's WebDRM stuff to make sure memes stay where they're uploaded first!
That's a decent idea, ©️ also this post has been copyrighted.

I stole this post.
To be fair, feddit.de memes often use the full logo which contains the domain name so people might wonder what it's about and go there.
Having just a super ugly icon like this without any context serves no useful purpose.
My memes are for anyone on the internet to see, and hell even use. They usually don't take a lot of effort to make, and its not like a lot of my ideas are entirely original anyway. I'd be flattered more than anything that someone thought of my jokes worthy of repeating.
My god this is getting cultish
No let’s not at all please
Yep, watermarked memes (and watermarked most things in general) are a scourge on the internet. I stopped following a Youtube channel that's mostly playthrough's of old fighting games because he suddenly decided one day to add an annoying (and ugly) watermark to the corner of ALL of his videos including the old ones.
Luckily, I'd found a similar one who was actually better at playing the fighting games themselves. I switched to that dude instead.
Isn't that the channel's icon?
That's what I was thinking too. I turned mine on, it's mostly transparent with just my logo outline but it's there.
Use AI to remove the watermark and steal this🙌
with the level of obnoxiousness meme-watermarkers have, it's practically a moral obligation
Just screenshot the corner of the template and paste it over the watermark
Christ Lemmy really is just as obnoxious as reddit.
It's cringe
