I’m not sure if AInik works, wouldn’t that mean they are a fan of AI? Also unsure of the synth- options as a friend of synthesizer musicians, but as a non musician maybe I should use that myself 🤔 I can’t interpret analogian without help…

If they had come up with something original like that, it would have been better. But creating constructive neologisms takes work, I guess.
Try if one of the following strikes your fancy
AIniks
NoBots
Cogclean
Algorejects
Synthephobes
I quite like synthephobes !
Synthless
Cogstainers
Analogians

AIniks, it’s something like refusenik, chainik and beatnikm yeah I’m not sure if it’s anti, or pro or something else, it’s also hard to say

Synth- as in synthetic, against synthetic fakeness
A cogstaining synthless analogianSynthfree ?
Makes more sense now, I only picked up one the first 2/3 and thought of other things 😅
