@davidism@mas.to interesting. Doing some open source for uni or your resume is something that I am seeing more too. Especially from India, which at least in part is probably attributed to population size, but in other part because AI has killed software offshoring. I usually respond kindly to those requests when I can see some effort and people are responsive.
Reviewing your own code should be the absolute minimum. But how do you say this without sounding like a Finnish kernel dev?

@codingjoe@fosstodon.org @davidism@mas.to LOL, I think that Finnish kernel dev has actually reformed! 💜 Brainstorming... You could try something like a GitHub comment template that you improve over time. Could start: »Thank you for the contribution. Upon quick reading, this looks like AI-assisted code. Kindly read the guidelines for my repository in the README.« In the README, write something about contribution quality and AI disclosure. (then wait for their reaction and close the PR if they don't get back)
