A note to the developers in the project, if anyone is reading: your repositories are in violation of the new Codeberg policy that forbids AI-generated code [1].

  Codeberg is trying to solve the right problem with the wrong solution. But hey, it's democratic!

    I like Codeberg's solution (hard written policy, light good-faith based enforcement), what would you suggest as a better solution?

    Their contention seems mainly focused on the heavy resource use of AI tooling.
    They run a service: they could impose limits on the number of submissions, builds, branches, scans, etc, and give additional usage credits to the large community projects they want to encourage.

    But they don't want to. They want to provide all needs for approved projects. They want that if a FOSS project legitimately releases 50 times a day, they want to make it work. If a slop project is wasting those resources that could be used for KDE, on nonsense, then they don't.
    They're not a free for all, they do KYCP (know your customer's projects) with an initial assumption of good faith.
    Also they're a voluntary society you can join by contributing money. They're not a charity as such, more like a group of people pooling resources, and also offering them to people outside the group on a good faith basis.
