Wait until people get kicked off because their code is "mostly" AI and we have discussions on HN how unfair it is to kick people off for some fuzzy and unclear definition of genAI generated code. If they create a place for human written code, it would be much easier to say No AI generated code. Examples include but are not limited to: * No autocomplete * No prompt generated code * No automatic agent generated code * No bug fix or PR fix AI code All code needs to by typed by a human. Done.

Claiming that all autocomplete is AI is clearly wrong, so I am not enthusiastic about your advise.

  All autocomplete is machine generated, the result is the same, unclear copyright, potential slob, not human typed.

    Are you serious here? Also about basic autocomplete based on words in the current file or variables in context of given function?

The people who would argue about how unfair it is that they got kicked out of somewhere because they flew too close to the sun, are also the same people who will rules-lawyer your "easy" list of rules and invent loopholes if they need to, just to be able to complain and stir up a crowd. Codeberg is run by people. People who can make contextual judgments. They're even pretty explicit about it in their blogpost; that it's not going to be a search-and-destroy process, and that they're generally communicative. In that situation, anyone who is complaining that the rules are "too vague" is probably just trying to figure out exactly how close they can get to violating the rules without getting kicked, and that's precisely the kind of people who would not be welcome on a community service like Codeberg. If you actually follow the spirit and intention of the rule, it would never even get to a point of ambiguity.

  To be clear, nobody has been "kicked out." Not yet. We left. Because of people talking like you, people starting from categorical purist blanket judgements and implying that anybody who used these tools is immoral and their legitimate questions about what the policy would actually be were attempted rule breaking. Before there was even a rule. "They're even pretty explicit about it in their blogpost; that it's not going to be a search-and-destroy process, and that they're generally communicative." The blog post came after the vote, FFS. People asking just what was going to happen got the kind of response you gave above -- complete with analogies of being "creepy guys" trying to "violate constent."

    "that it's not going to be a search-and-destroy process" Now. What about next week? When the mood changes?

  Every thread on HN about people getting kicked out of Stripe or Amazon, those flew too close to the sun?
