I agree with the the other comments. Anyway, which project? language-learning-tool?
Do you like the general idea of the PR? Is it possible to split the PR in a few smaller one? Is it possible to merge one part and keep it disabled by default for most users?

To be honest, I'm not a fan of the PR's general idea.

This is exactly what I am about to do. To merge a small part of that PR into my repo. That part conducts communication between the web app and the proposed extension, so the author of the PR can use my APIs while keeping most of their code in their fork.
I am actually glad that I created this thread. Thank you for responding to it.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I am not an open-source rockstar, and I have only had to reject PRs a few times in my life. All the times I felt terrible for people who put in some effort to build something around my code and got rejected.

I created this thread thinking that AI is definitely going to shake the open-source world, and I wanted to know how people deal with AI-slop PRs. Thank you for sharing your experience.
