Ask HN: Non AI-obsessed tech forums
Since it seems like 80% of HN nowadays is focussed on the AI industry, I’m on the search for a good tech forum that focuses on the rest. Can you post your favourite non-AI-obsessed forum?

This is cool! Thanks for sharing it.
I’m more interested in forums that attract a crowd much more measured and skeptical about AI, though - I know there are a lot of you here at HN (like me)

I'm especially focussed on supporting folks who often get overlooked or steamrolled in tech, because the current situation is often poor for the underrepresented. That might mean women, LGBTQAI+ people, non-cis folk, non-english-speakers, people who aren't speaking the native language of the place they live, and so on. Of course, I'm also very happy to work with all you cis white guys too :-)
