@thomholwerda@exquisite.social with all respect, if it the people who build something for free, discus what tools they want to use to build it, the people who use the thing don't get a vote.
They can be asked for input, but should have no reason to think they can make demands how someone else does things.
I'm not happy about OSS projects falling for the lure of LLMs, but "I'm part of your community because i use your software, so i get a vote how you make it" seems quite.. Entitled? Presumptuous? Arrogant?

@mavu@mastodon.social @thomholwerda@exquisite.social would you mind if I wrote a short post thread in response to this point? I have a thought that I want to express but there's some nuance to it which I think will need more than one post to capture properly. I don't want you to feel like I'm drowning you in an avalanche of text; and it's something I feel strongly about, but I don't want you to feel like that intensity is directed at you personally.
