Genuinely curious, what makes a project into AI slop for you. Was thinking about this based on a recent discussion of recommended self-hosting tools, which brought up ntfy.

• Massively popular project. Repo releases since 10/2021 and 29k stars on github.

Context: ntfy

• Sponsors include Warp, an AI-based development environment. That sponsor is mentioned twice in the readme. Saw a mention in a chat room of the project being described as having become AI slop, but don’t see any such concerns in their project repo within any issues or merged pull requests. And, the code is dual licensed under Apache 2.0 and gpl-2.0

What do you think? Is the sponsorship as problematic as actual code? Or, is there something else I’m missing. Curious on how you would compare ntfy with other sorts of AI concerns.
