There is Lemmy for example, very similar to old Reddit. The big problem is the missing content outside of mainstream communities.

Have you looked at AI bots to help populate Lemmy with more content?

No, because people don't come to Lemmy to read AI-generated posts. It's called social media, not robot time with language models.

there are plenty of reddits outside of the "popular ones" that have invaluable information in one place and I can ask questions. It still has value for me, and not much value for axis of evil bots to spread political disinformation like popular subs and on twitter.

Why would anyone want to purposely read AI bot content?
