⚡️👀 NEW - Reddit’s largest open-source community, r/opensource, has introduced new rules banning projects that use AI, are built with AI, or are made for AI.
The new rules say projects must be at least 1 year old, have multiple contributors, and be posted by someone who speaks English.
They also warn users that if they post AI-generated content or “LLM output tokens,” they can be permanently banned.
Don’t speak English? The rules literally say you “need to find a different community” because moderators say they can’t tell AI-written English from AI-translated English.
The moderators say Linux is still allowed
