Just had a look at Reddit TOS, and it has been updated on the 15th of Feb. The below is their term regarding content submitted on their platform.

When Your Content is created with or submitted to the Services, you grant us a worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, and sublicensable license to use, copy, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, distribute, store, perform, and display Your Content and any name, username, voice, or likeness provided in connection with Your Content in all media formats and channels now known or later developed anywhere in the world. This license includes the right for us to make Your Content available for syndication, broadcast, distribution, or publication by other companies, organizations, or individuals who partner with Reddit. You also agree that we may remove metadata associated with Your Content, and you irrevocably waive any claims and assertions of moral rights or attribution with respect to Your Content.

Pretty much owning your content I say.

That’s the classic terms of service, right there. The “we own your stuff” clause. They assume all rights over your data but none of the responsibility.

Nah, it’s still referred to as Your Content, just that they can do whatever the fuck they please with it. I think. IANAL.

Pretty happy about my procrastination driving my decision to not put up a bunch of my Star Wars DnD modules and campaign notes.
