It is also very choppy on my iPhone 16, not sure why.

Edit - I tried watching the demo, and it seems that on my phone the site is not usable, I can’t play the video, clicking on play does nothing and the page keeps scrolling and jumping

Fixing it asap

The live demo video is broken in mobile Firefox. It displays, but is annoyingly cropped (and differently depending on landscape or portrait).

The site layout is completely broken.

Probably vibecoded slop.

Hi, not at all vibecoded. I will fix it asap, I built it in hurry, sorry for the issue

That's fairly rude.

HN has been happily very rude about anything AI related the last year, even in cases here where it's hardly relevant or appropriate. It's depressing and I used to expect a lot better.

It takes more work to build a janky site than just no frills html/css unless you vibecoded it or copy and pasted a crappy template.

I think we should be allowed to push back against sloppy work (which is different from beginner work) instead of ingratiating it with a smile.

We have the rest of you to baby them over adding the worst css transitions I’ve ever seen, something they deliberately swerved into.

They are accused of vibe coding it only through charity because it’s hard to imagine they did it themselves and went “yup that’s exactly what I wanted after spending that extra time adding it.” Whether it’s vibe coded or not isn’t really the point.

Grading on perceived effort is not a rubric destined to last. You cannot detect sloppy work from beginner work without context, and in any case a lot of beginner work these days (and to some degree for the rest of time!) is going to include LLMs or AI.

Is HN only for advertising startups these days? If this post had nothing to do with AI maybe the response would have included some real genuine criticism and feedback, with the assumption baked-in that a beginner was being coached.

To your last point, then downvote it if it's bad. You're right and I agree precisely that it being vibe-coded wasn't the point - but it was brought up regardless. If the result is bad the feedback is still the same. If the "problem" is just that they used tools you don't agree with using, then that's not feedback on the result.
