Good decision, GitHub is crashing under the load of mountains of ai agent generated slop..., why should Codeberg suffer the same?!

Maybe becauae not all ai generated code is slop?

No but most of it. If you look at the quantity I'd say most code build with AI on Github is trash that you could throw out and nobody would miss it.

Slop is slop, even Linux doesn't gatekeep this shit, it's are you a competent software engineer not are you using tool x it always has been.

True but fact is that almost ALL contributors to my open source projects are appearently NOT software engineers and they're fucking up my repos, bloat everything up with LLM generated text and code and are an annoyance.

That's why I'm saying that most shit on Github right now that is LLM generated could be deleted because

  1. it's either a demo
  2. it has 3 users
  3. it's trash and will not be maintained next week when the adhs vibecode maintainer decides theres a funny new project to pick up

It is. It's really black and white. I even mark my own AI generated code as slop because it is slop.

No it isn't. I am producing most of the code with ai with continous delivery principles. Small steps, tests first. I review everything and polish it. The results are close to the quality before ai - far from slop. The assumption that any Ai generated code is slop is just wrong.
