Generative AI, namely LLMs, image and video diffusion models and especially the companies that make them plague the tech industry.

We got tired, so we decided to take things into our own hands and curate a list of projects that aren't complicit in the devaluing of labor by these companies.

Unlike projects that came before us, we want to highlight software that values the labor that goes into creating and not call out projects that use LLMs or Image/Video Diffusion models.

I think some things are mixed up here. Like Librewolf obviously meant AI features of the browser, not AI-assisted commits.
