Lutris maintainer: "I've removed the Claude co-authorship from the commits a few days ago. So good luck figuring out what's generated and what is not." (github.com)

Meh, I don't really care. It's a free product and it does what I need it to. Just open an issue if there's actually something wrong with the code itself or pick another software if you disagree with the maintainer. There's really no need for drama here.

It's more of a political stance.

For a good example check out Asahi Linux: https://asahilinux.org/docs/project/policies/slop/

It is the opinion of the Board that Large Language Models (LLMs), herein referred to as Slop Generators, are unsuitable for use as software engineering tools, particularly in the Free and Open Source Software movement.

The use of Slop Generators in any contribution to the Asahi Linux project is expressly forbidden. Their use in any material capacity where code, documentation, engineering decisions, etc. are largely created with the "help" of a Slop Generators will be met with a single warning. Subsequent disregard for this policy will be met with an immediate and permanent ban from the Asahi Linux project and all associated spaces.

That’s why we cannot have nice things.

People on the internet going nuclear about how a dev (who dedicates his spare time to create a free, non-profit piece of software) works.

Also they’re not contributing or providing solutions, but feel entitled to demand and criticize. Loving all about it.

Especially true considering that the Lutris team has been looking for active devs for quite some time and is only maintained by a few people. If they have to rely on AI to keep the project alive, maybe the ones complaining should submit some actual code instead of opening issues in their personal crusade.
