The r/programming subreddit has banned all discussions related to LLMs to foster a more thoughtful community that focuses on high-quality discourse around AI. Posts on AI are still allowed, but only if they're technical and contribute meaningfully instead of promoting things like vibe coding. LLM-generated content is also strictly no-go.
