> I don’t think their concern is “vibecode = bad” but more like they can’t handle the volume. Then they should not be in the business of hosting repos?
"if you cannot handle a 10x load over the historical standard of generally low quality content you should not be hosting repos" A ridiculous take

#32Yikes! I've been a software engineer for over a decade, and I've never had more fun in my career. Running an AI assistant on a cloud machine to pair with me, explore my ideas, learn new tricks, and even write code that I would never write due to timelines and deadlines has been fantastic. Using coding agents to search for patterns, understanding why our abstractions might not be working because of how users integrate…
Some would say I a, vibe coding since I don’t really write the code. I say I’m not because I’m thinking through the features more than vibe coders.

#34As more of these smaller forges get similar policies it makes me curious about the statistics behind vibecoded projects. My anecdata tells me that most of these vibecoded projects are one offs or abandoned. That’s not to say they don’t have value to the people who put them together. What I’m wondering though is: “Do these have enough value to the community to justify the cost of more infrastructure?” My guess is the…
