I know this probably wasn't op who did this, but I have to ask: who the hell puts a watermark on a meme?
Quite a few well known memers, not the peseants though
I don't even understand the benefit of it. It's not like memeing is a job where you have to protect your intellectual property. Why even do it? Do they think so highly of themselves that they need to "protect" memes that they create? They're randos on the Internet adding captions to images, not V/A professionals...
It also goes against the longstanding spirit of Internet memes, that they are things to by definition be shared, not intellectual property to be bound.
They want to drive traffic to their pages so they can make ad and sponsor money
Assholes.
Wait til you see the head nodders and finger pointers on videos.
Ironically you could use a Stable Diffusion AI plugin to remove the watermark in GIMP.
Serious question (because I'm a dumbass): why is this ironic?
Where? I can't see it
On chad's helmet
Timotainment's watermark is a main character in his videos.
Two questions:
TRAQ_WEST_to mean "Open AI"? Clearly I'm misunderstanding; can you explain?
