Cropping Comics (lemmy.world)

Kinda curious about this; what's the deal with folks cutting off the artist's name and site?

I read the "ads" argument in the comments, but I don't buy it as attribution isn't an advert. So what's it actually all about?

Found this part really funny

At the end, music don't have watermarks and neither do art. So why should comics have watermarks?

Because is something that a lot of musicians do today, having a spundbite that they use in all their songs. There's this one CRRDR that uses the roadrunner bip-bip sound, and in Baile Funk every producer had his own that are integral part of the songs and sometimes DJs mix the soundbite in interesting ways
