I absolutely don't want Meta Tags in every titles. It makes reading the list of posts super annoying.

I also don't feel the need to know whether there's some AI commits, but I do want to know if a project is largely vibe coded. I don't have an objective metric on where this line could be drawn.

I think the status quo is kinda fine. Some commenter will point it out and will get enough upvotes to be visible on first glance. It's not perfect but good enough for me.

    I find myself commenting three questions on any post about a new application somebody developed.

    1. What is your experience in [subject matter of app]?
    2. What is your experience in software development?
    3. What percentage of the code for this app was written by AI? What percent was written by you?

    Personally, I wouldn't mind if all new app posts were required to answer these questions for their post. It doesn't discriminate, it just asks them to lay their cards on the table for everyone to see. The community can judge from there.

    Some commenter will point it out and will get enough upvotes to be visible on first glance. It’s not perfect but good enough for me.

    I don't necessarily disagree here, however there is always the edge case of a certain overly-vocal group being 100% anti-AI, and that any usage of AI is considered a crime against humanity.

    I'm not part of that group per se, but I also want full disclosure. If you used AI to get things going and handled it yourself from there, that's one thing. Constant commits from Claude or whatever is a whole different bucket of shit I refuse to touch.

    Yes, the crowd will point it out if the author didn't and you can decide what to make of it. It's probably discouraging to post slopware if you know you're in for a lot of criticism, I'm not sure if it's better or worse than being forced to flag it [AI].

    I don’t disagree. Perhaps tags at the end of post titles rather than the beginning, or tags in the body of the post? I’m not sure what people use to filter these things and how those different options would effect usability.

    I'd be fine with the end, but it'd probably be overlooked a lot. Given how long some of these posts are, they would probably be hidden these as well unless the post starts with [Disclaimer: this has mostly been vibe coded]
