Yup, apparently I was an "old OCDB-whitelisted content creator", and I had no clue :P You might ask, "how did you not know?" Am I making this up? Did I just make myself a member by my own authority?

Lo and behold! I was part of the OCD community for some time! Thank you for welcoming me officially :)

It seems like pretty much anything is talked about here. The focus on curation seems to be 'Original Content', as is mentioned in the description of the group. I think I do original content, but how original does it have to be?

So it seems the focus is on writing things yourself. Great! I think my content fits. I type everything myself :P No copy paste ;)
Of course, there are degrees of 'original' writing as well, since you can read or watch things, and then talk about that information. Or you can think of things yourself, or whats going on in your life, etc., and write about that. So much of our knowledge or awareness comes from our surroundings, be it what other people do, what other people write, the videos or audio other people make, etc., that it would be hard to talk about things that don't come from other sources.
No one is an island, after all ;) Since we all share a common reality and talk about things other people talk about, not much is purely 'original' in itself. So I'll take 'original content' to pretty much mean you don't copy paste ;) Let me know if that's accurate.
What's your take on the meaning of 'original content'?
I look forward to posting in here in the future. Take care for now. Peace!
