This attitude is of course very common and I just don’t understand it. Like when I read news from the other political party - it’s just confusing to me.
Are they scared for their jobs? Angry that their hard earned skills are getting devalued? Genuinely concerned about copyright violations in LLM training? Or just don’t want the world to change? (Kids get off my lawn!)
The site describes a specific subset of issues very tersely. Can't you simply disagree with those, rather than imply they are never stated?
Regardless, what's confusing about the list of problems you gave? Are you implying they are somehow un-real in all contexts? The reference to political news is also confusing.
I don't read "specific issues" so much as generalized complaints and implied insults. "Low effort" is not a specific issue - it's just derogatory. "Cut the clutter" is not useful advice. All of it sounds like "code better".
The list of proposed motivations I gave are hypotheticals. I don't understand which if any of these apply to the people who agree with the sentiment in "Stop Slopware". It sounds like maybe you do. Which of these resonate with you?
