I read the whole thing. This seems like standard sponsored response of not biting the hand that feeds them now that they are full time…

The entire point 3 of the user complaint is reaching really far. The one user is being toxic through the whole thread so I also get from their side not wanting to heavily engage because nothing besides divebombing immich’s entire livelihood would satisfy them it seems.

FUTO seems like a toxic company, but the thread isn’t damning. It seems like we have to keep an eye on immich. Otherwise a fork I guess…

FUTO sponsors immich I guess, FUTO is on there. FUTO is problematic but as far as anyone can tell, they haven’t pushed anything on immich.

It was a joke, chill.

But let’s be in good faith about this, vibe coders will overwhelmingly use cloud based corporate frontier models…

And self hosting LLMs in general singularly and only solves one part of the resource objection (prompts running on green energy) and that is all and only if the model is run on green energy. It doesn’t solve most of the moral objections, IP objections, economic objections, resource objections, or brain damage objections.

That being said, one’s own, local, never-to-release app or internal tooling is probably one of the better uses for LLMs like documentation discovery, informal document translation and tiny TTS and STT models (the best usecase in my own opinion)

“You’re right to push back, when you create a new plant layout on Fridays, it does drop the entire database and rm -rf / your system, would you like me to fix that for you?”

Well it is within the last few months and that article was last updated in July.

I don’t know what to tell you, I literally use it every day on Firefox and Zen browser.

Troll account

It literally does. If it doesn’t work, Graphene blocks it.

I use it quite literally every day at work for embedded web tools.

I use it at home with esphome.

They are blocking based on browser signature. CalyxOS does the same thing.

Look at the code and commit history and/or talk to the developer.

If the developer only commits in giant blocks of 1-2 days and mostly in a few hours and changes thousands of lines of code in that time, the chances of it not being vibe coded and actually being checked are extremely slim, outside of a complete project refactor. It used to be that LLMs would just do massive single commits, but now they do a thousand tiny commits on the same day using a ton of barely human-readable jargon (for less experienced devs) in the git commits.

If the project was started past 2025 and the initial commit(s) on the first day were massive, that also points (less strongly) towards vibe coding.

If the Dev can’t explain what his code does without having an LLM write the response (this is getting to be harder to spot because LLMs are good at language patterns), that also generally also means that it was vibe coded.

If the dev’s commit history only includes documentation, issues, or very very small things until 2025-2026 and combined with one of the above, it is usually vibe coded.

If the dev has been writing issues or commits jn AI tool repos, that is another indicator.

The vibe coding identifying sites online are complete garbage with mostly false positives. For example, if I run it on my old github repos from before LLM coding existed, it says that it is very likely vibe coded because I comment a ton because my memory isn’t great and I am an electronics guy with very bad coding git management so my git commit history is like one or two commits per day when I am working on something, but I try to bullet list all of my changes in a readable way for people not familiar with the code (like myself in 1 year lol)

I think the comment about AI is not in good faith.

It isn’t users saying every “AI assisted” project is vibe coded slop.

It is just as often or more that developers and “developers” lying about AI assistance when they are just vibe coding or “AI assisting” and barely checking over the code. There are tons if those on Fdroid android apps too.

The projects that are actually only AI assisted don’t get that many complaints on most communities I see. It is the slop that people push as legitimate that gets people riled up.

Material files can mount remote storage network shares (SFTP and the like) while others like fossify needs an intermediary app (SMFA or something)

Well the ICC isn’t amazing either. Historically it has been used as a tool to “prosecute” African individuals in western courts and has prosecuted literally 0 western war criminals, completely ignoring European crimes abroad. Whether imperialistic/colonialistic or just trying to establish itself as legitimate by prosecuting easy targets, African countries (who were initially all for the ICC because of their history with instability and war and were some of the main case referers early on) are withdrawing because of how “unbalanced” the justice is.

The ICC has never once prosecuted a european national, EVER, for war crimes.

A lot of regimes seeking to get rid of western mega-corporation exploitation are resorting to getting rid of as much western influence as possible, maybe because the frequency of European, american, and corporate sponsored coups.

But the US never recognized the ICC because they commit so many thousands of war crimes.

In Belgium, just next to it, I know someone who was doing tons of torrenting and sharing with friends and family back in 2005-2010 time and got prosecuted for his piracy (like 5 years after he was doing it) and had to pay huge fines as a young adult from what he did as a teenager. He definitely wasn’t using a VPN and probably port forwarding and openly sharing back in those days. It definitely happens. (Not Germany but neighbors)

Just get and use a VPN with a client kill switch. Paying 50-100€ per year is much cheaper than 10k in fines down the line, and don’t share it with anyone outside of your household.

Hey, how do profiles work with notifications?

For example, if I am in a “FOSS-only” profile with Molly or something and then have a WhatsApp profile. Do I get message notifications across profiles?

Also the controlling party in Italy is practically neo-fascist and Austria is also sliding there again with their Nazi party like AfD in Germany and VB in Belgium getting a huge portion of votes.

I don’t see how it is that much better than a US non- profit.

I think the core thing is that you have to know of a bunch of different CA options and switch when necessary or on a compromised CA.

Ah, the deregulation mindset.

“If the user is unaware of it, does it really matter if they are harmed by it?”

One of the main points of society as a whole is protecting the people living in it, even if they don’t know they are being harmed/exploited/poisoned/etc…
