What's "OC"? (kbin.social)

I keep saying posts marked as "OC" but I have no idea what that means. Does anyone know?

OC stands for "original content" and the feature is a hold-over from how mastodon does things. the idea being that you mark it if you yourself made it and are not reposting it.

I see, so Twitter/Mastodon is made of so much repost material that now the original content is supposed to be marked as such.
