Ask HN: Are you unfollowing friends on GitHub because of AI slop?

2 points by panny · 6 comments · 1 min read


Last week one of my IRL friends started playing with claude code. What was a fairly nice feed on my Github landing page turned into five pages of just his commits. I like my friend and want to keep up with what he's up to, but it now drowns out all my other friends who also do great work. I may need to unfollow him.

Github has friends? No joke, I might have to consider something else now for my code. This is how it devolves into nonsense.
