New #noai whitepaper in the works;
🛡️ "You cannot have our users' data." SourceHut is blocking aggressive AI/LLM scrapers with a new system named Anubis.
Drew DeVault states SourceHut is funded by user subs, not data sales, and will never sell out its users or the commons to AI companies.
✅ Allowed: Search indexers, Internet Archive, open research
❌ Blocked: AI training bots & SEO scrapers
"We take our role as stewards seriously."

Q2 2026

Anyone have feedback on sourcehut ? I am drawn to it for reasons I cannot explain. But I have been babyfed to pull request since, idk, 15 years ?
I have been using PRs forever, and CIs. But let's be honest, with the shit storm that various forges are facing, creating PRs and waiting forever for an overcrowded and underscaled CI, for a solo dev like me, it makes no sense.
There must be a better way. And I feel like sourcehut might be the calm shelter I seek.
