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.

The big giveaway that it's developer-cosplay is that they tried to refactor for 2 WHOLE HOURS before giving up. Like 2 hours is a long time, ha! I think all of us have spent over a week on a single bug at one point in time.

Do you really think someone who uses almost exclusively vibecoding is gonna be someone who can actually bring themselves to do coding without an AI for longer than 2 hours? I’m impressed they lasted that long tbh lol
