Unlike a cover, a remix differs in that it uses the original recording, and is not just a re-creation of it.
This means to release a remix legally, you must seek copyright permission from the original artist or band who created the song or the sample you want to remix or reuse.
I had people follow me around on reddit too as well as other platforms. Comes with the territory. It’s not a lemmy thing, it’s a people thing.
I don’t think it’s prudent to dismiss lemmy users as outliers when their experiences seem to tally with reports from MSM.
