I too was upset with the use of Claude/AI/LLM’s in the rsync project. The maintainer received a lot of public backlash and as a result people have offered their time to help the maintainer with this project.

Since the backlash, the use of agents has been drastically reduced. That seems like a very human and overall positive response. It sucks that it happened. It’s nice that people are now doing the work again. The response could have been a lot worse. I can be forgiving in this specific situation.
