I don’t usually share what I build. Most of it lives on Codeberg or Github as a glorified off-site backup. 3-2-1 and all that. If I nuke my drive, I can pull it back down. That’s the whole point for me.

A while back I mentioned Pimaps here, a few people asked to see it, so I posted it. Got dunked on for AI slop despite explicitly marking which parts were AI-assisted (documentation and review- flagged with AIP). Similar story with Cliparr. I get it - Lemmy hates AI in any capacity.

What does the community actually expect from devs when sharing a project? I’m not assuming everyone here is a professional dev - though I’d guess the overlap is significant - so I’m wondering where the bar sits.

Polish? Full handwritten codebase? Something else?

How much of the sausage making do you actually want to see?

    Your recollection is either misremembered or conflated with something else.

    Irrespective, a hunch and a smell aren’t evidence. If you spotted something specific in the codebase, I’m genuinely open to hearing it - “it feels like AI” is doing a lot of j’accuse there.

    As for the spacebar and enter comment - I’m not sure if that’s a formatting critique or something else entirely.

    In any case, none of this is on topic here, with the topic being: what exactly is the expectation? As I said on the Cliparr thread -

    • Don’t disclose - slop
    • Disclose with AIP - not specific enough, still assume slop
    • Disclose more specifically - “slop”

    I’m genuinely trying to get a read of the room. Because when I explicitly described how the sausage was stuffed, I got harassed and called a clanker. I’ve seen that happening on other threads also…to the point at which I question the utility of tagging posts.
