Having first hand experience with building multiple open source and open core dev infra companies, the advice in this article is spot on. If it is AI slop, it's still good advice.
I'd prefer comments focused on content vs. trying to Turing-test AI generated text.
There's no way to win (except to human wash the article, which ironically usually involves making it less coherent/clean), so why bother trying to please people like you?
