not just codepen. if you are posting your code based on something from any other source. including the site link, source helps to better understand the program & code in general. PS: Knowledge does not get less with Sharing, it Increases.

Yes it is true. With the new updates, Sololearn automatically does some part of what you want but, if you're taking bits from here and there, it is your own effort

I asked a question as to the correct way of crediting an author or site, see https://www.sololearn.com/Discuss/872707/?ref=app

it's even worse when they copy and remove the author's credentials so that they don't show up, and once questioned about that, they say: "I recreated the code". SoloLearners😂
