While looking for Discord alternatives I came across this project which looks like a great alternative for the kinds of Discord servers centered around Open Source projects and organizations. Ones where live chat and voice rooms aren’t the focus.

It’s a combination of forums and knowledge base that would be perfect for this use case.

            Well, I have seen so many classic coders write shitty unmaintainable and insecure code that I don’t think that NOT being vibe coded mean anything.

              It’s like the difference bewteen publicly-traded and privately-owned companies. Publicly-traded companies are guaranteed to enshittify due to fiduciary duty. Privately-owned companies could enshittify, but it’s not guaranteed.

              A human programmer could be shit but at least they’re not guaranteed to be shit like the vibe coding AI

                I like the analogy…

                But at the end of the day better to have something that starts shitty but can be improved over time rather than nothing.

                If it stays shitty, then it’s just shit and won’t go anywhere.
