Forgive my ignorance... noob to the carbon frame world.

I've spent a good hour gradually yanking an alloy dropper post out of a carbon frame.  I didn't fit the post in the first place, bought the bike second hand, so not my doing.

I'm fitting a new post, again alloy, what should I apply to the post so that future removal isn't a massive battle?  Anti-sieze paste? Some form of grease? Or just nice and clean and dry, and regular removal to ensure no galvanic issues occur?  Post is fitting nicely, and I've given the inside of the seat tube a good clean.

Thanks in advance, from someone who's never owned a carbon frame before.
