Based. This is great news.
How can they tell if it’s AI-assisted?
Well, I was already sold on flatpaks, but now Flathub is going to be my main repo.
It wasn’t already?
It was in second place because having to constantly go into Flatseal for permissions can get annoying.
And yet another reason to use it instead of snap.
That’s … incredibly stupid. It will also make Flathub completely irrelevant shortly since app developers won’t change what they’re doing just because Flathub throws a hissy fit.
/had an LLM-assisted PR merged into an open source project yesterday
Who’s throwing a hissy fit here? Certainly not flathub but Ai Bros like you.
The policy allows for exceptions, which may be granted for mature, well-maintained projects
basically the project has to have a history of being maintained well already to get exemption.
So, something that pulls a Blender is excusable?
Having a policy against bad apps is fine - but that’s not what this policy says.
It’s trivial to write a good app using LLM aids - but that new app won’t have such a history.
Foss kicking itself in the face. Year of the Linux desktop any day now.
Over confident devs who can’t figure out the delta between entire companies replacing humans and the reality of a force amplifier that’ll turn devs into architecture/operators outside a small niche of actual hardcore coders.

They’re firing humans. “Replacing” implies something else is doing their jobs.
a force amplifier that’ll turn devs into architecture/operators outside a small niche of actual hardcore coders.
Is this “force amplifier” in the room with us right now?
Year of the Linux desktop any day now.
“Year of the Linux desktop” is a meme. Nobody cares if someone uses Linux, Mac, or Windows. All anyone wants is decent support for software on Linux as well. That being the case, it takes a special kind of masochism to use Windows these days.
👌👍
Good. I hope this puts a dent in the number of new projects that use AI. I also hope Flathub implements a system to clearly flag existing submissions that have used it.
There is no way people will change their workflow because of flathub. They will just not use it anymore.
The less AI slop on Flathub, the better.

Death and taxes are inevitable as well but I don’t see yall being earlier adopters for that

But my app I’ll have no idea how to maintain?!
And I reject everything on flatpak
