May 25, 2021 at 6:48 comment added PieBie Well, you're soliciting legal advice. But I'm not a lawyer, and as such I cannot and will not provide you with said legal advice. I gave you the link to the license and my view on how to interpret it. Any additional work falls on you and any consequence thereof too.
May 24, 2021 at 17:20 comment added Ooker @PieBie To be honest, I feel like that is a thought-terminating cliché. It doesn't solve our concern whether doing that is ethical and at least legal or not
May 24, 2021 at 11:57 comment added PieBie @Ooker You are completely free to do or not do whatever you want of course. Where, when and how you credit is completely up to you. The consequences of those decisions are similarly your own.
May 23, 2021 at 16:32 comment added Ooker @PieBie If you read the question, it says that the attribution should be "in any reasonable manner based on the medium, means, and context". "Reasonable" is not always and everywhere. Of course I understand your concern, but they are different. I also don't mean to exploit the subjectiveness of "reasonable" to make excuse, but it also doesn't mean there is only one option in crediting
May 16, 2021 at 19:20 comment added PieBie You need to credit ALWAYS and EVERYWHERE. Me mentioning the source is NOT a credit. Only you as the author can do that. And if you use these characters anywhere else, you need to credit again.

May 15, 2021 at 16:35 comment added Ooker @PieBie just a thought: if someone in the comment already credit the author, does that mean that I don't need to credit again? FWIW, I open a relevant question on Law SE if anyone interested: Does credit need to be immediately after using the material?

May 13, 2021 at 17:18 comment added curious This has already partly been covered in the answers below. Too many different stroke weights is one of the big problems imo.
