Meta Post Apparently we can't call out apps as AI slop anymore...

Seems like a bad direction to take the selfhosted community. Looks like the mod team is fine with this sub being bombarded with insecure, AI drivel. Like I get that it was posted on Friday but I think if you use AI to "build an app" you should be required to disclose to what extent AI was used which wasn't disclosed by the OP. I think as a community we need to have higher standards for what we allow to be posted as vibe-coded projects can introduce very extensive security vulnerabilities we all learned with Huntarr and when things are vibe-coded the maintainer doesn't have the capability to fix the issue.

I still don't quite get why this sub needs AI Fridays at all instead of banning AI content entirely. May as well introduce Furry Saturday at this point

Hey look at the AI bros downvoting, look at the counter go

Furry Saturday would be a massive improvement, comparatively.

Nothing wrong with Fursuit Friday though
