[Slackbuilds-users] stop mirroring to github~

[Charadon]

Sorry to say, but if you post your source code online in general now, 
it's going to get scraped by AI. Doesn't matter if you share it through 
Gitlab, cgit, or even a mailing list, it's gonna get yoinked. Pretty 
much a fact of life now, as much as I hate to admit it. LLM scrapers is 
pretty much the reason why Anubis exists nowadays

Hi.
I am getting to a point in my life where I'm ready to maintain a handful
of small SlackBuilds. And today as I was thinking about it, it occured
to me that SBo has a mirror on GitHub. I don't want anything I write
used for LLM training, so as long as that's the case I won't be doing
that on SBo.

I don't really expect to sway the community, I know the arguments for
keeping the mirror. I won't be swayed either. I'm just stating this as a
fact for y'all's consideration.

I'll probably not completely stop contributing to SBo, but that will be
a heavy consideration each time.


To finish this off on a funny note::

One week ago

Did he take his own advice?

Cheers, Jay
