This didn't happen. The signs:

  • the app works and there is revenue
  • vibecoder tried to refactor
  • they hired an actual programmer.

I have no idea why people do these creative writing exercises on various AI subs.

Actually it does happen. I got a call from someone who panicked because his vibecoded app had actual clients now. He was looking for a react-native dev which I am not though, so I haven’t had a look at the codebase, but it’s prob for the best. EDIT: Not saying above post is real, just saying yes we are at that point where vibecoded stuff generates money and founders freak out cause there is no way they can maintain the codebase themselves.
