AITA for calling out my boyfriend after he posted MY recipe as his own?

ok background, i (27F) run a small food account, like 4k followers, just for fun, recipes and restaurant reviews. my bf dev (29M) and i have been together 6 months, still in the exciting phase, he tags along to basically every food thing now. last week i tested a paneer tikka masala recipe three times to get it right and posted the video, did decent numbers for me, like 30k views. two days later dev posts almost the EXACT same video on his own account, same plating, same steps, no mention of me anywhere, and it blows up to 80k because his account is way bigger than mine. i texted him like did you seriously just post my recipe and he goes "babe we're basically one thing now, what's the difference" which made it worse honestly. so i left a comment on his post saying "recipe originally by me 🌿" and he got SO mad, said i embarrassed him in front of his followers and turned it into a whole thing over nothing. now he's barely texting me back and my friend group chat is split, half say i should've just talked to him privately, half say he stole my work fair and square. so, AITA?

your work deserves credit... love doesn't mean erasing whose hands actually made the thing 🌱 NTA

@owenf_64square

He took your move and claimed it as his opening. Calling it out publicly was just showing your work. NTA.

@dana_punchlines

"we're basically one thing now" is what every plagiarist says before stealing your fries too. NTA
