In any case, it's important to identify projects that are beginning to actively vibecode and clearly express position on this issue on various platforms so that authors and maintainers receive feedback.
Even if this particular bug was not written by LLM in this particular case, it's not a fact that the release does not include other regressions and that subsequent vibecoded versions will not include them & new ones.

replyAre you listening to yourself? The same exact thing also has applied, applies and will continue to apply to manually written code, in perpetuity. There's nothing new under the sun here; regressions happen when there's change, and the only way to mitigate is to have healthy feedback loops.
Do not going harassing developers because you think they are doing it wrong. If you can do better and don't want to actually contribute to the upstream you are always free to fork it.
replyThat's literally what this thread is about.
replyOpenrsync is a project that’s existed for a long time and is a great example of people building what they want.
replyThis thread has people suggesting it’s good or important to go tell open source devs they’re using bad tools.
The former is great. The latter is not.
No. It's not important. It's actually pretty shitty to go around looking for projects and then telling the maintainers you disagree with how they develop.
replyFriendly reminder that volunteer maintainers owe you literally not a single goddamn thing. I absolutely want no AI slop in my commercial products that I pay money for, but your feedback is not important to people you are not paying to develop software for you. They gave away not only their software but the source code for free; if you have a problem with it, fork it. Which is something you can do with their generous allowance, and that is an allowance any maintainer can instead choose to not bother themselves with if publishing their code for free leads themselves to dealing with entitled internet commenters harassing them with complaints.

replyTechnically true. However, I also do not owe them my silence.
