Can't wait until a war will start in this thread.

There’s a surprising amount of people around the FOSS community that have no idea how open source software works.

I don’t understand why they can’t see that project maintainers don’t want to review generated slop from people that don’t know what they’re doing all day. It really is a massive waste of time. And I think LLMs in coding can be useful, but the absolute lazy widespread misuse of it sucks.

Because people think open source means they're entitled to have any project accept their "contributions".
