Alternatives to FOSS projects choosing to use and/or support LLMs/AI, as well as tips for requesting better policies or forking.
ITT; lots of sloppers getting their feefees hurt and lashing out.
only natural, the pencil users got their feefees hurt and lashed out at the sloppers and now the sloppers are lashing out
Good to see the state of things, but it’s bloody depressing how pervasive this has become (unless the maintainers have really really reviewed all submissions to ensure they are a) understood fully and b) high-quality. But given the flood of PRs many projects get now I can’t help but think they’ll be overwhelmed and slop will just slip right through.
Interesting list to monitor if LLM-free projects start lagging behind their LLM-assisted peers over time.
Pandora’s box has been opened and we won’t be able to put the genie back in the bottle.
I’d prefer a list of projects that publicly abuse their users… which ironically still includes Linux and *BSD.
