There's a lot to hate about AI but for me, it's like the owner of the site says, it's the fact that people don't use AI as a tool but use it to produce crap because the people who are using it has no clue about the software and techniques behind it and have no desire to learn. We're losing institutional knowledge and the passions behind it, which is not good in the long term.

In a statement posted on the site’s homepage, @encounter notes that while they don’t believe AI is the main issue in itself, because when used properly and ethically it “can expedite the decompilation process in a significant way”, the “community aspect of decompilation has been broken” by people using AI in more questionable ways.

Just look at the gaming subs celebrating this.

G*mers are a bunch of troglodytes.

The bit about vibecoded forks sapping attention is really important, though.

It’s different than the usual “solo dev fork drama.” Vibeforks spawn in the dozens, often go out of the way to draw attention, fizzle out quickly and leave precisely nothing constructive behind. They actively drain the main project.

It seems like a small thing, but these kinds of projects gain manpower and motivation through exposure. I’m seeing this exact same thing erode communities in other niches, too.

Sure expect the new peoe aren't looming for community and just doing everything themselves
