Holy crap I thought rsync is a super serious and professional program. Didn't thought they ruin it with vibecodeing.

A lot of important infra depends rsync.

I believe serious one is openrsync, the openbsd fork that does NOT have vibe-coding.

Apparently the project got overwhelmed with LLM vulnerability reports, so the last person in the world who actually cared enough to keep maintaining it gave up and gave in to the spop himself.

I read that the guy is a legend and genius (I believe that because rsync is fantastic. He invented that). I trust in him knowing what he's doing. We should give him a hand if we want it to be better.
