The multiple levels of abuse here are astounding. That grown adults can think projects like this are acceptable, let alone promote them, is hard to believe. I am 90% sure this is yet another vibecoded project. Has vibecoding really corrupted people?

First, I am fairly certain this violates Github's ToS. Second, it effectively amounts to a denial of service. Third, are people seriously using the .charity TLD to host something this frivolos? Have people got no sense of propriety anymore?

You have to go back further back than that, to the Great Recession, IMO.

Judging by the proportion of drivers with their high beams on, blinding me on well-lit roads after dark - no, not anymore.

This website has completely lost its ethos.

No, this is just using GH Actions runners as ephemeral dev machines for your software work, plumbed together with cloudflared and tor for SSH and HTTP connectivity. It would likely been just a % of all Actions across all other jobs even if it was wildly popular. This is a mistaken interpretation, in reality.

Like social media vibe coding doesn’t change people. It just makes their character more obvious
