> We already have precident on that topic via that short story about the reverse isekai airplane carrier to ancient Rome that was written on Reddit in early 2010s

Can you please talk about this some more? A cursory search did not give me anything. What short story are you talking about and which adaptation of it?

Fwiw, this sounds like a take on the novel and subsequent franchise 1632. This sci-fi/historical fiction has a quarterly fan fiction compilation that has continued even after the original author’s death.

Such a sad tale. I’d love to watch a documentary about this.

That's not what I took from that article?

> On October 21, 2011, Reddit administrators explained that the licensing terms were designed to protect the site from potential legal action, and that they did not intend to block the production of the movie.
