The dev "owes us" as people to not be a shitty person, or at the very least, we should expect them not to be one. It absolutely is a slap in the face to people who trusted that project and the person heading it to not be shit, because they are now being shit, and people are right to call them out. Because they're being shit.
Also you're right, more people should donate to FLOSS projects that they love and use frequently, as do I. As someone with no programming knowledge, it's all I can do aside from recommending your software to others. Wanna know one way to ensure I'll not only withhold donations but warn others not to use or trust your software? Defending and/or using AI slop machines.
Even if that were true, which it isn't, there are plenty of other reasons to scrutinize any use of "generative" AI.

Yeah I never understood why people liked him in the first place. He was always so obviously fake. Its so off putting.
You have got to be fucking kidding me.
110%. I still haven't even played Sonic Frontiers all the way through bc the only way to play it without that shit is to emulate a console. The only emulatable version of the game is the Switch version, and my machine isn't up to the task because of all the overhead.
Wayyy ahead of you!
And here I thought AMD was somehow a better option.
I like your thought process, but struggle to agree with you because I don't believe there is a way for this kind of technology to be ethical without being rebooted (haha) from the ground up. Even so, about the only thing I think it should be used for is double checking what humans have already done, or perhaps printing text from human speech for quick and dirty subtitles. However, all that is assuming that the data it is working off of was not stolen, and that it is not able to "generate" anything "new" because that's just theft and exploitation.
Right. Sorry, I'll try to make the post clearer bc I'm not trying to mislead anyone, I'm just so upset that this is even being entertained by Linux devs, it's boiling my blood.
Nobody's only policing those in arm's length. I'm sure nobody mad at the Lutris dev over this are defending Google or Microsoft lol
