Ah, I was waiting for the inevitable AI pusher "you're sticking your head in the sand this is INEVITABLE" argument pushed by OpenAI and others.

Carry on, nothing to see here.

> I notice that both PRs were filed after the assembly and after the ballots went out

At least in Switzerland, you can not vote (well, you can but it does not have any effect) on things that are not mentioned within the agenda published and sent to members with the invitation. So IMHO these votes will not have any effect itself, just serve as an "indication".

IANAL.

I agree, I went from github to gitlab. I should start looking at codeberg.

Banning LLM or crypto currency related projects is very bad. I think it's better to flag them or mark them, but let them be.

Only if you host public FOSS projects - it's not a replacement for private repos.

It seems a lot of people on here don't understand that.

we should also flag any projects to do with the enshittification of the world. Probably banning all JS, node, bun, loaf or any other related projects would be good.

Since we're talking about my opinions here, which should be construed as laws of my hosting platform, i always hated ruby so lets ban ruby.

In fact codeberg shall only accept Perl programs going forward that are written using emacs

Unknown what, lol?

"we don't like X, Y Z for A, B, C reasons"

"Luddites, fear of quantum computing.. oh no I'm confused, they're so afraid of the future."

That is like someone mumbling at their shoes that someone is afraid of something. No notes.

At any rate: Are you afraid of a control group? Are you afraid of a surface not covered in slop, so it may keep slop knowable? Are you afraid to sink alone?
