I heard one maintainer said it was costing them extra time to sift through the hundreds of garbage pull requests they’ve become flooded with, and when they try to discuss the pull with its writer, they can’t because it’s very obvious they have no idea what they’re doing.

Move to codeberg. Sanity by obscurity. Only the really devoted go to codeberg for now.

One large part of why I can't wait for the bubble to pop.

Recently AI was weaponized against the fediverse when someone intentionally published a big AI generated security report about a popular fedi platform. Not a PR that might be useful, just a huge pile of allegations. The author is a professional developer so they knew what they were doing and how much urgent work that would create.

Bit of a dick move.

Then they had the gall to opine at length about what AI means for open source and how foss projects will need to change their ways.

Such a douche.
