if it's any consolation, some people at GOG don't like it either, so maybe they'll revert this and won't do it again

this sucks, still. to me this just sends the message that GOG doesn't care and will not put much effort into what they do. that's not a good message to send when you're selling yourself as a games preservation platform...

There's a post elsewhere with an excerpt from a job posting for GOG devs that paints a bleaker picture. In the post they state you need to be familiar with AI tools and encourage the use in your team. I think they're in it too deep at this point.

yep it was listed under their senior c++ dev offer, the one people got hyped about as it mentioned Linux software deployment as a requirement
