Ive been on reddit for more than a decade. Kinda bittersweet, but its not the first time I have moved on from an internet site. I just cant support reddit and sucking up all my posts for AI purposes. Feels terrible and spammy. Ive been a reddit premium holder for many many years.

Anyways, what communities do you recommend?

Wouldn't an AI company simply set up their own instance to have all content federated to it? I don't see any barriers to hoovering up the content here.

Bingo. No need to ask for permission, no rate limits, documentation/source accessible. I would have zero surprise to find out some engineer from an AI corp had made some pull requests to fix bugs or performance issues that would be mutually beneficial for us users and their collectors.
