I figured out what annoys me SO MUCH with the flood of "I made a thing" posts in the #retrocomputing community and it's evidently LLM vibe-coded.
It's about the same as if hundreds of people arrived in some woodworking forum, proudly posting "I built a bookshelf" with pictures of an IKEA Billy, or "I cooked lasagna" with pictures of a microwaved defrozen industrial crap labelled "Lasagna" on a recipes website.
I don't mean to gatekeep, but maybe if you're not interested in getting good at something as a hobby, just don't pretend you're good at something?
@colin_mcmillen They're basically cosplaying a hobby, but they don't even make the costumes themselves.
