My hobby project languages of choice these days are Kotlin multiplatform and Go, not JS, but there are multiple things I've worked on over the past year that I would have open sourced in the past but won't now because I'm not interested in freely helping with the big LLM slurp.
I'm not ideologically against LLMs as a technology or the usage of them, but I do believe there is an inherent unfairness in the way a small set of companies have freely hoovered up all of this work meant to enhance the public commons (often using the most toxic and anti-social web crawling robots imaginable) while handwaving away what I believe are important copyright considerations.
I'd rather just not release my own source code anymore than help them continue to do that.
