the standards of the petition would fail all five most popular DEs and Sway. Niri is talked of as prohibiting AI but said policy of “You can use LLMs privately (not like I can check or control that), but not to write from scratch.” seems to match KDE’s policy completely.

I agree Niri doesn't have a usable anti LLM policy as of today. But there are still other desktops!

E.g. the river compositor has this policy: https://codeberg.org/river/river#strict-no-llm-no-ai-policy

Use of generative AI/LLMs is strictly forbidden for all contributions to river.

This includes bug reports and comments on the issue tracker.

which one? I haven't heard of River before. the repo says it's only a compositor and needs a window manager, and kwm seems to be the most popular River-compatible window manager, and it doesn't have a policy unless you count "It is the contributors' responsibility to ensure that all submitted code is either original or GPL-3.0-compatible."

Sadly, some river WMs aren't anti AI. But some are, e.g. this one: https://codeberg.org/beansprout/beansprout Or this one: https://codeberg.org/sivecano/rhine
