There’ve been a lot of stories under the new vibecoding
tag that seem to suggest it’s unfocused. Check here.
- This one is reflections on the discourse around AI, not actually about vibecoding.
- This one is a Firefox feature release for previews. Unsure if topical, quite sure not coding.
- This one is a utility script. Sure, it’s machine generated, but so are a lot of UI code and graphql bindings.
- This one is a security writeup, basically.
- This one is complaining about a customer support interaction.
Here are some that are actually about vibecoding:

- https://lobste.rs/s/v4orqo/code_with_claude_opening_keynote (arguably a product release, but still)
- https://lobste.rs/s/cyb7el/using_ai_build_tactical_shooter
I don’t know what the right answer is, but I feel like we need to figure out what the purpose of this tag is and fix it.
