I think one of the reasons people think this is slop is because of the name. How does the name EmDash relate to being a wordpress spiritual successor? It's clear the name was chosen as it relates to the use of em dashes in AI generated text, so why would you want to be associated with that? Why not choose a name like Astro Press given your experience on Astro?

Not sure why you’re being downvoted. The name is so bad. WordPress is a great name for normies. Something like Cloudflare Press would make more sense. EmDash is at best a temporary meme.

this is not clear to me, and is not discussed in the article

you can like or dislike the name. but criticizing the quality of work based on your affinity for the name is foolishness

It doesn’t need to be said in the article, it’s obvious. EmDash is a term associated with slop.

Well, an em dash is used in text to identify a pause or alternatives in the text.

..so like a fork in the way it's done, a new way of doing things.

But you need to remove the dev/ai hat in order to go back to writing rules and the real use.
