Been a long time Debian user but with the recent AI decision I am planning on moving on so anyone have an anti-AI recommendations? I understand its being used in the kernel as well but are there any distros taking a full anti-AI approach to the parts of the code they control?

Since folks seem a little confused on what I am referring to here is the mailing list page regarding the use of gen ai without disclosure vote: https://lists.debian.org/debian-vote/2026/08/msg00360.html

The tools used dont change the core principles which in Debians case is the social contract.

Slop is never going to get through any serious quality control.

If it comes, it comes. Will be a shame. But until then I will happily keep using it.
