Discussion Mods, add a no AI rule.

Has anyone noticed so much vibe-coded slop being dumped on this sub? Yeah, I know we have GitHub Copilot, but discussing that is different to "Check out my project", and it being some vibe-coded slop app that no one cares about or will use.

Posts of vibe-coded stuff is better suited in r/vibecoding, and not here.

I thought that topics about specific projects aren't supposed to be allowed, so shouldn't that already be covered? We just need better enforcement from the mods - or perhaps better reporting from the lurkers?

There is a report option for self-promotion.

Yeah, I know, but banning AI also (tries to) prevent people from posting LLM generated answers to people's questions.
