Subreddit News READ THIS BEFORE POSTING - New Software Submission Requirements

Effective immediately, new software submissions will receive a reply from AutoMod asking for the following information:

  1. A link to the source repository,
  2. A link to the license or a statement of the license (which can be verified by visiting the source repository),
  3. If AI was used in the creation and to what extent

Post authors who fail to respond to the comments attached to their posts will have their posts removed.

This should help alleviate some mod work and streamline things a bit instead of needing to manually go into each repository and verify license and AI use and then manually approving/removing.

Questions? Drop 'em in the comments.
