These people are ridiculous. This is an open source side project, if people don’t want “ai slop” in their app, then maybe they should fork the project and maintain it themselves.
They can’t fork it now because the fact that the AI commits aren’t labeled as such means there’s no way to tell which need to be removed.

They can. They just need to find the first instance of AI, branch from the commit before and start with that as a basis for master. Then push that branch to their own remote.

If someone cannot do that, they probably aren’t competent enough to maintain a project of this importance. They can then cherry pick commits that are good and merge those. Or request others recreate new PRS with them with correct attribution. It’s tedious, but easy.

Maintainership isn’t fun. The hardest problem is finding someone that cares enough to take it on. Many would give advice if someone was willing.

Sounds like Lutris dev was burnt out, so it would probably quickly replace it.
