So AGENTS.md is just the human-readable documentation the AI dudebros have been refusing to include in README.md until now, because they claim that the code is "self documenting" and everyone else must be stupid if they can't figure things out.

Not that anyone reads what I have to say, but every single time your app shows a modal dialog box with something like "Are you enjoying <insert app name here> app?" I will always answer no regardless of my true feelings about the app overall because, in that moment, I hate the app with a burning passion.

The best advice I have for new nerds: Refuse to pay rent.

Don't subscribe. Don't lease. Don't use their cloud. Don't slip down the freemium slope. Don't create accounts on their services.

Buy it once. Run it local. Avoid commercial software.

It'll be a huge pain and you'll be an outsider but it'll be endless, interesting, and hard fun that'll pay you back with a curious mind and an understanding of the fabric of our intellectual infrastructure that will make you light-years more capable, useful, and healthy than the "AI" zombies.
