A week or two ago, when there was a Bluesky outage and a Claude outage at the same time, people were earnestly pointing to that as evidence that Claude was somehow a load-bearing component of Bluesky, or that AI vibecoding had caused the outage... I had to just disengage but I was also very annoyed by it all.

people really do struggle to differentiate between correlation and causation. we humans love our patterns so that we can make sense of existence.
More like a struggle to STFU about things people don't know much about. I don't think the comments are thought out at all beyond being said in reaction, or likely to get a reaction.
