There's no way this dataset is going to survive on HF, right? It will be hit with so many DMCA takedowns.

It's metadata only, not video content. I expect it will likely survive - that's a pretty common pattern for machine learning datasets.

Stable Diffusion was enabled by LAION, for example. That was metadata about images and URLs to those images, but not the actual image files.

True, but it includes the full text of the post. That's enough for some copyright strikes.
