Non-military space opera recomendations (lemmy.world)

I'm looking for some good space opera. I read a lot on royal road and KU. I love space opera, but I'm sick of military and AI tropes. Any good suggestions? The more ship to ship battles the better. I understand that may be counter-intuitive, but I've read several privateer/freighter/scrapper books that were amazing. Looking for more of the same.

Thanks!

Came here to recommend that, but then realized that AIs often play major roles in this books...
So while definitely one of the greatest space opera books series, it does not quite fit OPs preference.
