Not every. The quick, very-low effort ones, I just leave.

Why:
I saw another post with "Anti Commercial AI License", then wen on to read the license and went, "Neat!".

It makes it easier for anyone to decide what to do if they want to use my comment/post (in cases where it actually has something useful)
It makes life just a bit harder for people data-mining for AI
- That way, some data entry worker will probably ask for a raise and probably even get it and maybe some entrepreneur going "AI everywhere!" will think twice.
- Or there will be a chatbot spouting "Anti Commercial AI License" or "CC By-NC-SA" in their answer text, which would be hilarious.

How are you inserting your signature? is it manually? Do you have some kind of keyboard shortcut to insert it?

For now, I have just saved it in my clipboard application, so I copy-paste.
When it goes out of history, I just open a file, where I have saved it and copy from there. So it's pretty crude.

I was hoping that either the KDE Social web interface would add a "Signature" feature or I would pick some Lemmy application that would allow that, but for now it's just this.

Perhaps, if I feel like it's being too frequent, I may set a compose key for it.

It's cute that you think data miners give a fuck about the license of anything they scrape.

It's unfortunate that despite explaining as properly as I could, my point was misinterpreted as me relying upon someone caring about licenses.
