great article about the playdate community getting absolutely polluted by LLM/genAI users and evangelists it's disheartening knowing how much some prominent members of the community will defend or even use it themselves, completely missing the point of such a scrappy and open indie platform

it reminds me of how the decompilation community is steadily getting ruined by sloppers a labor of love and technical curiosity, turned into pressing the fascist-owned dopamine button for internet fame

When I decided to make programming a hobby, and not my career, it was because I couldn’t imagine writing complex code for end products I didn’t care for. The indie scene on the other hand offered a place where I could learn to code games better, for projects I actually want to make.

Seeing that now it’s increasingly just people using AI to get past the fun and interesting problems, I really don’t know what we’re even doing here. And yes, it is absolutely most repugnant on the Playdate — the scrappy little console with a crank you can make games for rather easily!
