I agree Niri doesn't have a usable anti LLM policy as of today. But there are still other desktops!

E.g. the river compositor has this policy: https://codeberg.org/river/river#strict-no-llm-no-ai-policy

Use of generative AI/LLMs is strictly forbidden for all contributions to river.

This includes bug reports and comments on the issue tracker.

which one? I haven't heard of River before. the repo says it's only a compositor and needs a window manager, and kwm seems to be the most popular River-compatible window manager, and it doesn't have a policy unless you count "It is the contributors' responsibility to ensure that all submitted code is either original or GPL-3.0-compatible."

Sadly, some river WMs aren't anti AI. But some are, e.g. this one: https://codeberg.org/beansprout/beansprout Or this one: https://codeberg.org/sivecano/rhine
