yep. that's pretty much the X ( #shitter ) way. why bother paying Elon Musk to select who is and is not shown in feed?

💯 it’s crazy how much power and influence they have because of it
It’s what helps them sell advertising, right? POWERPOINTS
What are you thoughts on invisible watermarks?
Not visible by eye, but detectable through software.
What would the purpose of an invisible watermark be? And who would be able to detect it?
The purpose remains the same: signing content/proving origin. Obviously AI companies are applying invisible watermarks to prove that content is artificial, which isn't relevant here.
What's lost to you is marketing/advertising. So if you use it as a means to advertise your account then maybe it's not valuable to creators.
I expect another reason to watermark content as a creator is to prevent others from claiming as their own or monetizing it; an invisible watermark wouldn't prevent people attempting those things, but at least it would still be provable.
In this particular case, I can circumvent the watermark with cropping by screenshot. Now it has new metadata and is technically a different image than the original without credit to you, the originator.
Might be a dumb idea, I'm just thinking out loud and getting feedback.🤷♂️
I can assure you that even visible watermarks don’t prevent others from posting them or even entering them into contests for money 😂🥲 What visible watermarks achieve mostly is to communicate who made it. There are a few reasons that info is useful to have visible. Not saying an invisible one would be useless, but I think the purpose would be different from that of a visible one.
