Me opens link expecting vibe-coded slop… and indeed it seems to be vibe-coded slop 🤷

Uh… Yeah I think it’d be better if we stuck with Movim instead, which is already built on a proven scalable and most importantly federated back-end (XMPP), and also already offers text, group audio and video calls, screensharing w/ audio (have to use chromium based browser for now to stream the audio), and even some pretty decent encryption.
XMPP gang rise up! There are dozens of us!
I’m going to start running these slopware projects through my own AI and open 6000 PRs for “fixes”.
How the hell are you supposed to pronounce this?
“Great”?
“Greet”??
“Grit”???
“Grite”???
“Jonathan”

I don’t know if requiring an S3 bucket really fits the self-hosting ethos
you can host your own S3 storage
this is a cool looking project! well done! I like some of the choices that are available, such as the ability to have auto discovery over a local network, and video chat works as well. That’s sweet!

there’s a .cursor directory in there with a rule specifically telling it to not mark generated code as generated. I can’t see how that could ever cause any issues /s

It really looks like every programmer wannabe is trying to bumrush a Discord codeslop for free internet fame points these days!

So what do we call these? Cordslop?
AllHailTheSheep@sh.itjust.works 2 weeks ago
yeah agreed. I’m fully in support of an open source discord alternative, it’s sorely needed, but expecting to vibe code real time communication tells me exactly which programmers have worked with real time systems before. RTC is not something you vibe code successfully haha.

Btw is it ai slop if I use AI to help me through if I do reviewing and googling and fact checking because I don’t trust it? It is really good as a general knowledge source in my opinion
