Which brings the question why bother to hide it in the first place
Comment on Lutris now being built with Claude AI, developer decides to hide it after backlash

Whether or not my game manager was built using LLM assistance is pretty near the bottom on my list of concerns at the moment.
Considering how useful tools like Claude are to coding, and how easy it is to hide the fact that you’ve used it, I just assume any and all new software I interact with was built using LLM tools.

Because coding is hard work even with AI assistance, and people who don’t code will judge you the loudest and longest and meanest for using AI to make the work easier. I personally suffer rejection sensitivity dysphoria so I understand the emotions behind their actions.
But yeah, everyone just ignores the years of coding work this person did for nothing just to help people enjoy their games, to crucify them for using AI and then having feelings about getting yelled at by the very beneficiaries of their prior work.
It’s not like they’re stripping out or reimplementing contributions and taking the project closed source, like BookLore. People need some damn perspective.

With “30 years in programming” he could just say “fuck off”, but I am guessing not everyone is equipped for that. Using AI for good causes sits OK with me, but not recognising that something needs to be done at a higher level (set boundaries or just drop/find successor for the project that costs too much for him) - no. And I don’t like these slaps in the face

No no no you’re supposed to reach to the right and stroke the next guy. Every negative aspect of this glorified chatbot’s brief history can be blamed on a volunteer making Windows less relevant. If there’s a single line of Bad Code then the whole thing is ssslop! and that label will surely keep hounding people away from openly using a tool that kinda works.
