I see other forums as "competitors": Reddit/HN/LessWrong/Delving/BitcoinTalk. Basically, places that share our format/style of social media and/or provide the same kinds of content/learning/connection.
Of course, I don't view all of these as competing with us, but I do think about their "systems" and why/how/if they attract people when we do not.
As public social media gets destroyed by AI bots, I suspect our "competitors" will will increasingly be apps that have great private group chats.

Funny enough, it feels like none of these other platforms get affected by AI bots, or maybe they do and have good moderation system and mods doing the hard work.
Browsing SN sometime I notice outlaw content and not sure why as been tagged that way.

When other platforms don't like stuff they delete it. When stackers don't like something, they pay to "downzap" it and get it marked as outlawed (which can be reversed by other stackers paying to "upzap" it). Outlawed items are still viewable to people with "wild west mode" on in their settings.

Community moderation: can we define it like this? It's a great feature!

I sometimes call it "group moderation" but community moderation works too.
