I was thinking about some kind of grouping system or hierarchy, but to be blunt the post was running long as-is.
I figured it would be cool for some communities if posts could be tagged with copyright details, particularly if the community focuses on copyleft. For exampe, a community for sharing background images, could have a post from a poser who has an an anticorporate “Share and Share alike” type vibe:
Resolution/800x600 - tags for common resolutions
License/CCBY-NC-SA 4.0 - would imply that the linked content was licensed Creative Commons “Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International”
CW/Boobs - Implies that this might be NSFW if your workplace doesn’t approve of boobs.
Animal/Mouse - The post contains an image of a mouse
The post could be linked to a Pixelfed, Imjur, Flicr, or other reasonable picture hosting site. The community’s AutoMod could load the link in the post and scrape for licensing indicators (based on the hosting site) and either block the post, flag it for manual, or whatever if it suspects there’s a mismatch. ditto for verifying that the image is the correct resolution. Maybe posts that don’t please the AutoMod are delayed by some amount of time (where the mods can review them if they wish, but after an hour or so would get posted.
The mods would never have to worry about the resolution tags, the AutoMod bot would take care of that automagically (if mods can modify tags, maybe AutoMod could correct the resolution tag based on the scraped image and even if it were done wrong, it probably wouldn’t be a huge issue unless it were egregiously wrong). If foul play were suspected regarding licensing (i.e. maybe that risque cartoon mouse from Steamboat Willie isn’t the author’s original work to republish as creative commons) it would have to be handled by regular moderation techniques, & that’s no worse than what we had to begin with.
The CW/Boobs and `Animal/Mouse tags don’t do anything at all with the Mods or AutoMod, but the Animal tag would show up after the post title, and based on the user’s preferences, the user’s app (or the main website) would blur the image by default due to the boobs.
In other words, a post to the community ‘Indie Anime Wallpapers’ by a patreon-funded artist could post their latest work “Sticking it to the Mouse” would look better titled as: “Sticking it to the Mouse” Mouse, 800x600, Boobs, than if it had the old school title “[F][Mouse]Sticking it to the Mouse[800x600][CC]”
