I don't know about you, but when the creator of a software says I have not read any of the code, I don't want to install or use it. Call me old fashioned. Really hoping this terrifying vibe coding future dies an early death before the incurred technical debt makes every digital interaction a landmine.

To be fair, the author says: "Do not use Gas Town."

I started "fully vibecoding" 6 months ago, on a side-project, just to see if it was possible.

It was painful. The models kept breaking existing functionality, overcomplicating things, and generally just making spaghetti ("You're absolutely right! There are 4 helpers across 3 files that have overlapping logic").

A combination of adjusting my process (read: context management) and the models getting better, has led me to prefer "fully vibecoding" for all new side-projects.

Note: I still read the code that gets merged for my "real" work, but it's no longer difficult for me to imagine a future where that's not the case.

I have noticed in just the past two weeks or so, a lot of the naysayers have changed their tunes. I expect over the next 2 months there will be another sea change as the network effect and new frameworks kick in.
