What surprises (and saddens) me the most about the new reality of agentic software engineering is how a majority of issue and PR descriptions are fully AI-written.
I would expect that most devs switch over to using AI to code (I use it too!), but then file the issue/PR themselves with a "Hi, this is what I tried to do, this didn't work, this is the fix". But no, about 90% of the issues I get on Mediabunny these days are fully AI written.
This is the new reality so I'll get used to it, but I personally find it hard to understand why it is like this. I know for myself that I would write the descriptions by hand because I want to communicate with the maintainers on a more personal level and let them know that I appreciate their work. Before agents, most of the issues I got looked like that.
Without this, OSS development feels much more lonely: you make software for other people and you mostly hear back from machines.
