It's AI slop.

Good idea, but not worth the risks

"at least partially vibecoded" meanwhile the github repo itself says the entire thing was

hard pass

I've been using Amethyst and have been loving it. It have a very similar interface to MO2

Wow, can this install multiple mods from nexus automatically?

Canadian_Cabinet@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 12d

Exactly the same as MO2. Its great. It can even do collections I believe

Aw.

Good idea, but not worth the risks

Reminder that much new code in all major operating systems is vibe coded these days. Linus Torvalds explicitly permitted LLM code in the kernel several months ago.

It has an public codebase, so you can review the code yourself if inclined.

"It's open source, you can review the code" has become one of the most annoying thought-terminating clichés. Sure, we could:

Parse the code that the owner likely doesn't fully understand
Figure out the application logic that the owner also likely doesn't understand
Check the logic for anything that might cause unwanted side-effects
Check the logic for malware behaviour
Run tests (and review the test code because it's also likely vibe coded)
Pray and beg that everything works
Repeat every time the software needs to be updated

Or we could warn others that the owner couldn't be assed to either write the code or review what some LLM farted out, and that neither they nor their code should be trusted.

It's gas station weed. It's a drink from a stranger at a night club who swears there's nothing in it.

Especially because it is vibe coded. I wouldn't even do this with every application on every update for a software that is written by good humans. At most for a single application I fall in love with.

Damn, was actually looking forward to trying this.

woelkchen@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 9d

the owner couldn’t be assed to either write the code

If you're so happy making demand to others: Why can't you "be assed" make a better alternative?

If anything is super toxic attitude among open source consumers like you is demanding work of unpaid volunteers as if you were a paying customer.

I'm not defending LLM generated code but your attitude is the worst.

Or you could just use Amethyst Mod Manager

Does it support Mod Organizer 2 or just Vortex?
