@Codeberg@social.anoxinon.de Actually since yesterday I'm pondering about the idea to build a #federated version of stackoverflow, nothing written yet, I'm reading, researching. Also, right now I was checking this stack exchange sqlite db under CC BY-SA 4.0 to check how useful and doable would be import this data and using as a base for the federated version. Also wondering if we could use this data somehow to train our own opensource AI to help the community, but I'm do not have knowledge on LLM/AI things. Please if there is any expert I would appreciate the opinion on that. https://seqlite.puny.engineering EDIT: A better place to download the dump content, with more interesting tables, like the one with the Votes; the other link the dumped data only contains two tables Users and Posts. Right now downloading the whole data related with stack overflow, and will take some time due my humble home internet connection, so I didn't have the chance to take a look at the data, but I guess that's the interesting thing. here: https://archive.org/download/stackexchange

Codeberg was asking about this. The linked toot by a commenter points to :

SEqlite

They are minimal. They provide the data you probably care about and the data you need to comply with the original license in SQLite format.

      And guess what, it can be done just as easily, if not, more easily on a federated instance. You don’t gain at real additional control over your data (and no putting “covered under license X” is about as realistic as those Facebook posts saying “I don’t give anyone access to my posts”).

      I’ve said this before and I’ll say it again, realistically the only way to control your data from AI is a DRM type solution which everyone fundamentally hates.

        I don’t think this can be solved with any type of technology. It needs legislation. These AI companies need regulation.

      Federated Stack Exchange isn’t harder for AI to eat. If anything it’s easier.
