    It is copyrighted lol. That’s why you don’t see that specific design much anymore. I was sure I read somewhere that the design was in copyright hell, which is why it isn’t used anymore. Looks like I’m wrong.

    Edit: actually, after looking more into this guy, the design is public domain. He made a whopping $45 off the design while others have made millions.

      That’s how it usually goes, one person works and creates something, then some other person makes a shitton of money off of it

        The people who argue against copyright need to understand that one of the functions of copyright is to prevent companies with deep pockets from taking the profits you deserve for your hard work.

          One of the advantages of copyleft, shame the only people who only know about it are the weirdos who use Lemmy.
