I do the same as you, except in vim. But increasingly I'm getting the nagging feeling that I'm wasting my time.

You’re not wasting time by being deliberate about what you build and having to choose what to dedicate yourself to. Vibe coding is not synonymous with productivity, and a lot of what we call “productive” today is just a different form of wasting life that is more socially acceptable.
I made this project from start to finish in less than a day, and I feel it was well worth my time and effort.
Thank you for spending your time and effort on something fun you believe in and that explores a point about human nature, and for showing we often underestimate how much we can get done in so little time on our own when we set our attention to it.
