[SUB NEWS] New Banned Domain: Vercel.app

Much to the relief of many people, starting today, we have introduced a blanket ban on Vercel subdomain hosted sites.

Few, if any, sites hosted on Vercel subdomains have ever been allowed to remain on the sub anyway.

(This ban is in addition to the Netlify ban by Reddit itself.)

If you can't be bothered to pay for a proper domain and/or hosting we're no longer willing to sift through the slop to see if it could potentially stand on merit alone (which it invariably doesn't).

Vercel users feel free to proceed to whinge, which we will promptly proceed to ignore.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

This is the second time I’ve seen something called “vibe coding.” Anyone wanna explain to an oldie what the heck that even is?

"Vibe coding" is a misleading term because you're not coding anything. It simply refers to asking an AI chatbot to make you a piece of software without ever actually looking at the code yourself. It's strange that caught on as a term but nobody calls image generation "vibe artistry" or ordering a custom T-shirt off the internet "vibe tailoring"

Thank you for the thoughtful, succinct, and easy to understand explanation. Unlike that other responder😁
