I think people with LLMs is what will drive me out of open source. Every time I look at PRs in the Babel repo I get sad and annoyed. Somebody opened an issue, I reply "PRs welcome!" and I get 3 PRs with even the *descriptions* LLM-generated.

I miss when open source was about collaborating with strangers online and having fun together.

We added some similar-ish rules to the Preact org a while back, haven't really seen any decrease in junk PRs (not that we were/are getting a ton to be fair) but it definitely has been helpful as instant-close justification I've found. I spend less time thinking about wording and how to reply.
