• So are you saying that your understanding is that what we write here on Lemmy is copyrighted, with authors holding the rights?

    Yes, that’s exactly it.

    Services often do have:

    you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, translate, distribute, and display such user content

    But, I don’t know how that plays out in different jurisdictions, which license those services redistribute the content as, and so on. That’s for the copyright lawyers to figure out.
