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

Phoronix article on it: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Debian-Votes-Responsible-AI-Use

I am probably gonna ditch linux all together because the creator has been infected by genAI ( used LLM to heko debug, which is a big sin in my codebook ), so I have been trying NetBSD. I got it installed last night, but now I need to figure out how to get xfce4 to be default desktop environment I boot into.

Someone else listed a no-ai OS website, so I am gonna look into some of the other BSDs there as well.

You may as well abandon life altogether, because life has been "infected" with reality.

And reality is shapes by our actions. We work hard enough and we may and genAI forever best case scenario. Worst I'll take is societal values equating genAI with CP levels of degeneracy and depravity.
