It reminds me of the futurology subreddit before it became a default, filled with well meaning people that understood a better future was possible. When it became a default despite the wishes of the users it became the pessimistic hellhole it is today. I'm still angry about it.

I’m worried this sub will suffer the same fate as it continues to grow. Enjoying it for now though.

Eh, the singularity is a niche enough topic - some even regard it as psuedo-scientific or at the very least too much wishful thinking - that we're safe for now. Maybe once AI really starts doing more for the regular person than making digital art - which I myself still find amazing since Woah this wasn't on my radar two years ago - then we might seen issues. IKD, it's nice to have a little haven where we can "pretend" and hope that technology will solve much of the looming disaster that seems to be all around us.
