Federated social app: Discord-style servers and chat with ActivityPub.

https://github.com/y4my4my4m/harmony

I don't remember hearing of it till now, yet it claims a lot of desired features. Github page shows only one contributor, one fork, 44 stars; lot of commits in the last week, oldest 3 years ago; GNU Affero General Public Licence v3.0.

Found via https://chat.btfree.org/@ozoned/3850a821-fc6d-431f-b235-feed68605f6e

If the author’s profile is any indication, it’s likely Harmony was written using AI:

    It was. And they've also erased its generated disclosures.

    Looking to understand: what is the significance of this?

    It means the project may be vibe coded (LLM generated with little to no verification of what the output is); meaning it’s a lot more likely to contain security vulnerabilities and privacy concerns.

    And that’s ignoring the ethical concerns of using AI in addition to the lifespan of the project (vibe coded software often isn’t maintained very long).
