And that's why I either do not update, or only update apps that have
indicated they will not use it for development or take PRs generated by
such means.
I don't have time to police source code for every app I use. I don't
have time to learn various languages and patterns in order to do so. If
the maintainers and project leads haven't explicitly rejected so-called
'AI' for their app, I simply will freeze it at an older version, or find
an alternative app.
Fancy dashboards are nice toys to me. They are not a requirement and
there are other solutions.
If I have no other choices at some point, I'll use a machine with no
network connection, and baring that, go back to pen and paper. (though
thankfully, any old & current version of GnuCash will work just fine for
me needs for as long as I have working hardware.)
I don't succumb to the 'this crappy thing is ubiquitous now, accept it
into your life and embrace it' crowd. No, no I will not.
Regards,
Adrien
