Without reading the post, I’s guess because of all the vibe coding. I recently ran into a fucking vibecoded Bloomberg terminal TUI. A Bloomberg terminal ffs!

The relevant subs on reddit (e.g. /r/CLI) are so full of vibecoded slop you'll be hard pressed to find a real project there.

And yes I do mean slop. Projects the author spends two afternoon on, posts on Reddit, basks in the upvotes and moves on to their next slop project. I'm sure there are good vibecoded apps but this ain't it.

I read the article and I dont think it was worth the read. Your comment summarizes everything it wants to say but doesnt state explicitly.

A lot of them are written on javascript for some weird, fucked up reason.
