Hello news community!

We from the admin community want to highlight a rule that is very important for this instance; copying copyrighted work onto this platform without permission is not allowed.

For this community this is most relevant to the articles that are posted here. You are allowed to copy a short summary (like the bot also does for some news sources), and you are allowed to post an archive link. What is NOT allowed is copying the full article in your body post.

We understand it is very convenient to have the full article in the body, but sadly it opens the instance up to legal action, something we can't do much about as a volunteer and donation based platform. We hope you understand.

To be clear, this rule has always been in the instance rules, so nothing is changing on our side, we just hope that this leads to less confusion when we delete a post / ask a post to be altered.

Let us know if you have any thoughts or questions.

Thank you for being such an amazing community!
