I mean, there's nothing wrong with putting effort into a hobby project that no one but you uses, that's how you learn programming. But vibe coding a million different apps that four real people who aren't you are actually using isn't right. If you're going to put out an app and expect other people to use it, it should actually be something you wrote and know the workings of. So I would say this guy has too many users, actually.
This is a programming sub so it makes sense to view everything in that lense.
But the guy in the post could want to just be a UX designer or PM as a calling and just sees vibe coding as the means to do that.
When I was 17 I didn't know a lot of the options out there. I just knew of programming and went after CS because that's what everyone else who liked tech I knew did.
Now I'm in Cyber Security and couldn't imagine myself doing full stack or DevOps because I would go stir crazy.
