Updated my actual-budget container today, and met with authentication failure - I am locked out of my budgets.

I turned to the github repo for troubleshoot, and.. Noticed that their commits are pretty much dominated by AI now.

At least they seem to be being up-front about their AI usage by tagging commits with the tag, but it still feels icky to me.

(As a 'bonus', their only support channel is on discord - but I guess that's the norm for many open-source projects.)

Is this fact of life now? Are most projects being written and managed by LLM nowadays? Not sure I can trust the projects nowadays.

Is there alternative budget app which does not involve LLM?

It's not a tool, it's a chaos generator.

Just like humans. Bullshit code and bad developers existed before agents helped make them.
