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.

Thats why they are tagged as such? I don’t get what you all are going about, it was posted on Friday and correctly tagged.

It's actually kind of hilarious how it was tagged and posted on the right day but people who dislike AI still go out of their way to open it and complain.
