To be Frank its not crappy software. To be me, it's crappy terms of service.
I’m a big Zulip advocate. I was using it globally at my previous employer for a global org and it’s pretty great.
Still tricky if you run a public facing site, there are constant crawlers and bots and any of those could be feeding AI.
Don't put private data on your public facing website?
Is such a thing even possible? 👽
Well of course, that's true of any and all publicly accessible data. At least with self-hosting, your private channels still don't get mined against your wishes
