Should /c/opensource allow AI / slop-coded project posts, or remove them? (lemmy.ml)

We've been getting a lot of AI coded submissions recently, as well as lots of reports asking to remove them.

Should we remove these posts, or not?

How about making a rule that it is at least six months old and in continued development? This would filter out most slop.

    agreed. i think metrics like this are much more practical and useful:

    • age of project
    • number of stars (not great, but can help show overall interest)
    • number of versions/updates
    • activiely maintained

    if an amazing, maintained tool uses AI, that’s a lot different than a one-night project that’s never been tested and will be abandoned in a week
