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

1 points by panny ↗ HN
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.

no, you need to find a way to deal with it. Fight slop with less slop.

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

Friends on GitHub? Are you from San Francisco?
