If it gets the job done, that's what matters. Linkedin shitters were never going to do anything interesting in the first place, look at what actual hobbyists are making instead. People complained about Berm Peak using an LLM to code up a new user interface and control software for an ebike, but it worked so the complainers can be ignored.

E-bikes are cool I guess, but what most everyday folks are going to notice first is something like how my health insurance company just launched a vibecoded rewrite of the patient portal and now I have to wait on hold to find out anything because the claims history and EOB pages regularly show incorrect information or simply fail to even render.
