Shortly after releasing version 1.0.0, someone else's announcement was under the spot for being machine-translated and, transitively, the entire app was labelled as "AI slop". The OP and me trying to defend myself were pointed at like "bots" and the discussion degenerated in a weird conversation where everyone had to prove being human (despite account creation dates being messed up due to federation). In today's article, I clarify why a project like Raccoon is not the right use case for AI: why I develop it, what return on investment I get from maintaining it and why it is still important to create things "by hand" for both personal and professional enrichment. In corporate environments some logics apply, in personal projects the dynamics are a little bit different.
