I assume you are implying that LLM generated projects don't mean bad quality. That's true. At same time we all know what this means. Plausibly looking projects that might even work but have little human oversight. There are so many of them It's really difficult to know. I don't want to depend on such code and I bet neither do most programmers. Why? Because by then you might as well vibe the library yourself and be the one who does the oversight.

I might be wrong but I doubt that people on Codeberg are against use of LLMs that make the projects better. Like finding security leaks. What these rules are aimed at are hosting of endless vibe coded projects that are just copy of each other.



I would encourage you to go back and read what was said at the time. Yes, a significant probably-majority really are against the use of LLMs for anything and the policy was evidently not about a deluge of vibe-slop on the site. Because there was a much simpler answer for that: quotas, specific rules, specific policy, moderation.

Instead a vaguely worded policy was put in around the tools used to write code so that vibe-based judgement could sit and decide without the potential judged having recourse to any appeal. And requests for specificity were not just turned down but mocked. Because the intent was to leave it open so that a process of bullying could be put in place.

Basically, anti-democratic practices masquerading as community/democracy. I used to see this a lot back when I was involved more heavily in left wing activist groups and it was the sign of a declining and degraded community. Sad to see it here.

As for "I assume you are implying that LLM generated projects don't mean bad quality. That's true." I'm specifically saying LLM assisted/generated doesn't mean one way or the other. They're tools.


I love you being heavily involved in left wing activist groups but you are no more because they are anti-democratic. When was that? While you were working at google for 10 years? I think you might be in same situation like atleast third of the people here. Yes Codeberg members did undemocratic poll and they undemocratically voted for this anti LLM policy. I fully agree the left wing of the Codeberg is coopting their project and we should go to support much more democratic Github.


i love you too, buddy.

big hugs.
