Its a special kind of irony to post AI slop complaining about someone's ai slop that isn't actually ai slop just devs whining about being expected to maintain their code instead of being able to extort the messengers to do the work for them.

If they're not being paid, they're under no obligation to "maintain their code". If you don't like it, don't use ffmpeg.

It's not "whining" to refuse to do unpaid labor for the benefit of someone else - especially when the someone else is as well-resourced as Google.
