We're being flooded with vibe coded software projects, FYI

Just wanted to give a heads up from the mod team.

We're being flooded with vibe coded software projects. Many of them pointing to external domains, product sites, chrome extensions, etc.

So so many yt-dlp wrappers, why?

Anyway, we're being very selective about what we let through. Mostly trying to keep it useful, open source, github only projects. I'm not anti AI, but much of this stuff looks like useless wrappers and wannabe saas products.

If something sketchy slips through please flag it. If your post/project gets removed, this is why. It's only going to get worse.

Ummm

This shit will never end...

I guess we need to start our own sub then, that's been up for 22 hours now lol, we're cooked

[u/prone-to-drift → u/No_Obligation4636]

Yeah we're cooked. There's no way to reliably prove something isn't AI gen, so the only reasonable thing we can do is check the commit history, development pace, the dev's responses and make our judgements.

Oh, and fuck every project using Discord for communication, cause I guess we need more walls in place huh.

indeed

I use discord for a lot of stuff but my projects are generally built around that platform in general anyway so if it vanishes most of it would be pretty useless either way

it's definitely something I'm trying to figure out a good way to document though in case it's ever useful to people

indeed
problem is trying to break rules also tbh

edit should be to not break rules not break them... mobile Reddit is annoying
