From 5a66911c81a5fedb28533f097a61ac6dbb782e56 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nur Date: Fri, 7 Aug 2026 15:32:18 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] docs: be honest about the AI-spam moderation trade-off (fixes #37) Replace the 'you lose nothing' claim with an accurate description of the trade-off maintainers actually face when registering rewards: free to install, but it can bring a flood of low-effort/automated claim attempts (including from AI agents) that need moderating. --- pages/overview/introduction.en.mdx | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/pages/overview/introduction.en.mdx b/pages/overview/introduction.en.mdx index 8afff2e..ff30729 100644 --- a/pages/overview/introduction.en.mdx +++ b/pages/overview/introduction.en.mdx @@ -28,8 +28,8 @@ For a detailed view of the reward lifecycle, check out this [section](/rewards/l ### Benefits for Open-Source Maintainers -#### You lose nothing -Our [bot](/overview/install-bot) is entirely free.

But registering rewards on your issues can expose your project to a flood of low-effort or automated "I'll solve this" / "claiming this bounty" comments, including from AI agents that attempt fixes without real understanding. So it isn't quite "you lose nothing" — you're trading some of your moderation time for a real chance at faster, funded contributions. For most maintainers that trade is still worth it, but it deserves to be stated plainly. #### Gain popularity Rewards created in your projects will attract developers interested in claiming them. This puts your project in the spotlight for great professionals.
