honestly the thing that makes me walk from alpine might not even be the LLM debate, the governance issues, etc

it might be the fact that i can no longer properly maintain my packages in alpine because the gitlab is being DoSed by AI scrapers

@ariadne ah so that's why it was so incredibly slow. I was going to ask what's up / if there's a problem on the server —but oh, it's overloaded :<

@colinstu our infrastructure is being decimated by LLM scrapers, and yet we can't even agree to say "fuck AI"

@ariadne @colinstu It’ll always be funny (and extremely hypocritical) to me when people using LLMs deploy Anubis or whatever on their own infra. I wonder if Alpine will do something similar.

@ayushnix @ariadne @colinstu Anubis is slop and literally shares goals with ‘AI’ companies—it exists solely to gatekeep access to knowledge online

@mkljczk @ayushnix @colinstu cool, anyway, it would be nice to have a functioning alpine gitlab
