I appreciate it :) but sadly not!

Thanks :)

This is mostly about cutting down the noise in my inbox. And likely the premise
is false and I'll end up reviewing all sorts still, but I would like to be less
subject to being self-nerdsniped into reviewing things unrelated to my
maintainerships :)

Of course the AI wave has been horrible, and is getting significantly worse.

At first it was once in a while that I'd see slop.

Then it was at least once a week.

Then every few days.

Nowadays it's pretty much half of what I see, if not more.

There still plenty of great people in mm though, regardless :)
