Half of them also have a very obviously vibecoded front-end that looks exactly the same




/r/selfhosted just added a new rule, vibe coded apps only on Friday because there were just too many.

They’re created to offer functional outcomes. If they’re doing so in a friendly interface then I’m cool with that

Sure, if they're tested well enough that there are no obvious UX issues (which is usually not the case)

It's just that there's zero effort put into them so they don't really offer anything of value. If you write a todo list-tier app, it would be completely useless to most people, but it's a learning project for you. If you vibecoded a todo list-tier app, it's completely useless to most people including yourself.


So if a platform is vibe-coded, it suddenly has no value? When the Spotify founder vibe-codes an app, it’s praised—but when an open-source contributor like me does it, it’s seen as a bad thing? That doesn’t seem fair

Not sure which app you're talking about


Where is the source then?

change my mind after the tailwind thing happened not going to open source it for now.

So why is it relevant for 'pdfwithlove' that you are an open source contributor?
