Before all the vibecoding when I saw some project even if I thought it was dumb or didn't appeal to me, there was still a level of respect for it because at least someone put the effort in to write the code and at least attempt to understand what they were doing. The more they understood they more they learned about programming even if the project itself isn't super useful for others.

Now I see these things and its more likely than not that it was spit out by an agentic tool with little to no understanding of the code, and hardly learning or effort took place. Feels cheap and a waste of time. Why spend my time looking at something that someone made in a few hours so they could up their fake portfolio?

Its great to find real development out there but these types of posts eg "Show: random agentic tool gibberish" feel cheap and flaccid now. Nothing impressive
