I see multiple people in the replies that all confirm they voted in favor.

I never claimed anyone could vote.

So you checked up on everyone critical of this decision in these comments, dug into their git history and confirmed that assumption?

I think this is the main drive behind this. Make it easier to get rid of people you don't like/don't welcome on your platform without making it explicit, because that could surface some biases of theirs.

When I read this quote I also had to think of this tante person on Mastodon urging their thousands of followers to vote for a certain thing. If one actor like this can possibly impact a small community this way, I'm on the cautious to sceptical side about that community project's future.

That project just disappearing from your mind is probably for the better. If it was a company doing such an activist rug pull, you probably wouldn't want to deal with them either. That's probably just intuition telling you something.

They could've found so many more legitimate reasons for not wanting pure vibe code on their platform (load, resource constraints, github's uptime since AI assistance became mainstream, etc) but they chose the virtue signalling path instead.

> Using LLMs to work with your code gives you a kick of adrenaline. You can develop at a rapid pace, build things as if you had a large team. Only that you have none. In fact, you are (often) alone, working with a statistical machine that turns energy into code.

Is anyone else extremely annoyed with the way this is written? To me it reeks of paternalistic arrogance that simultaneously exposes the author's armchair psychological headcanon about how they imagine people to work with LLMs.

I'm still undecided if I want to self host either gitea or forgejo. Can someone who used both or is particularly experienced with one of them tell me which project to settle with?

Most comparisons I found were all written with someone who didn't seem all that ideologically neutral on the matter.

To my understanding forgejo (the gitea fork) is run by the people behind Codeberg whereas Codeberg is running a customised version of forgejo. If Codeberg can just pull the rug like this, shouldn't I expect similar behaviour from forgejo in the future?

I really don't need all that "holier than though" drama when I self host my stuff. Perhaps I better settle for gitea then?

In reality it's more of a "if you don't like it, pay more to not have to buy it".

Using genai for such a bland text. The slop intensifies.

That's basically another Tuesday for any US government over the last decades.

Don't use it. Don't even consider it. Do whatever it takes to let everyone know you're not gonna use this and tell your friends the same.

These corrupt bafoons talk of sovereignty and then they pull stunts like this. Even if you're totally pro EU, vote with your actions if you can't outvote the Commission.

> Dude who came up with the term: "The core of what I set out to criticize is just the notion that any random patient stranger should feel entitled to as much of someone's attention as they want."

I don't see how that's related to the topic or issue being discussed though. If you're a maintainer you decide when to shut down a discussion. Someone is annoying/creepy/difficult and wants a feature? Let them fork it, eod. Every escalation afterwards is basically just trolling or harassment.

You wouldn't know my stance on the matter based on a pull request, especially not if some author didn't plaster it all around their profile.

Reading about anything Google Search in 2026 gives off some Yahoo vibes around 2006.

Ahh, to be that naive again. Those were the times. One definitely sleeps better.

If you haven't done any digging, don't make such claims. This is a network that goes way beyond the current US administration. I'm sorry you're still trusting whatever media you consume.

(I'm not gonna debate this. It's not that difficult to find some investigative research on this.)

If any of this was about protecting children, that Epstein thing wouldn't have been buried and forgotten already.
