#2We are seeing the slow death of social coding. This policy is not inclusive in any way, and paints everyone and everything with the same brush.

Social coding has been dying for a while. I see it as a direct consequence of broadly decreasing levels of trust across society.

#5> LLMs are harmful to the free software ecosystem as a
whole, as their main use-case in software is to appropriate free
software regardless of license and regurgitate it new new projects
without any respect for the copyright, provenance, or obligations of the
source material.
This is a new one. "Main use" indeed!

"Social Coding" was dead the moment LLMs showed emergent programming capabilities. This is the remaining communities attempting to defend themselves from the hordes of low effort slop coders.
From first principles a community that relied on high friction knowledge attainment as the barrier to entry does not survive contact with LLMs. That extends far beyond "programming" as well.

#7Yikes! I've been a software engineer for over a decade, and I've never had more fun in my career. Running an AI assistant on a cloud machine to pair with me, explore my ideas, learn new tricks, and even write code that I would never write due to timelines and deadlines has been fantastic.
Using coding agents to search for patterns, understanding why our abstractions might not be working because of how users integrate, etc etc.
Not everything vibe coded is bad software, not all bad software is vibe coded.

#8I saw somewhere that one of the issues with github is all the commits made by the various AI "things".
The other sites may not be able to afford the infrastructure to support vibe coded projects. Maybe that is one of the reasons Sourcehut has this proposal.
Personally I agree with what codeberg did.

#9The programming community will continue to schism down these ideological lines, its inevitable.
May everyone find their niche but inclusion does not work when barrier to entry is reduced to near zero.

I don’t think their concern is “vibecode = bad” but more like they can’t handle the volume.
