I stopped reading at "fun toy".

There's always some shill willing to go "yeah this steals people's work, mangles it and spews bullshit back at them, all while destroying the environment, to make a few dudes richer. It's nuanced". 🙄

Why would you assume that "creators" only means people on video platforms 🤷

Not so much as "no AI slop" but "here's something built by someone you clearly despise due to their background outdoing you without requiring a right-wing techbro circle of investers". Simply put: defiance in the face of a woefully corrupted industy. Or just pure old school "fuck you" vibes. Take your pick.

Bloody hell, I love this ✊

Could be because nobody on your instance is following any omicron.blog users. As I understand federation, there needs to be an existing connection for your instance to look up the other site in searches?

I could be wrong, but new/small instances are often omitted in searches.

I've watched a computer do stuff for me, I'm gonna put "dev" at the end of my username too.

Same, and the project seems very "AI"-friendly on other fronts (assistant feature, agentic search). I'm not touching that.

Okay, now imagine your fee for a Mullvad subscription being funneled into a neo-Nazi movement. Not something out of history books; people actively, currently working to oppress, expatriate, and in the final measure kill people that don't look or think like themselves.

And you'll be complicit because you weighed your "security" over what your VPN company stands for and supports.

They showed you who they are, believe them the first time. Don't subsidize white supremacists.

a horseshoe party. They present a mix of politics that's mostly very left leaning except for their views on immigration

Yeah, except for that last bit... That's Nazi enough for me to annull whatever leftwing airs they put on. Also, that "horseshoe" theory of politics is a centrist fantasy.

There are some things you only have to do once for the stink to stick forever.

All you need to know is in the first sentence of your post. If you realise what Nazis are, and what supporting them in 2026 means... you wouldn't shrug and say "does it matter?"

Yeah, it's a sign of my general disinterest in most of these that I hadn't even checked whether they're vibe coded.

Do you require any particular features from Obsidian or Logseq? If not, what you need may just be a synced, shared folder and a naming convention for your notes.

For my personal use (which is, admittedly, less complex than a collaborative note system) I simply sync a folder across devices, using Syncthing. Markdown files are sorted by subject into subfolders. I can them open them in my editor of choice on the given device and platform.

Again, this may be too bare bones for what you have in mind, but sometimes when advanced services don't quite work out, it can be worth a try to scale back to the simplest DIY method and build from that.

I'd go one step further: vibecoding is shitting on people's labour.

All of the training material ingested and garbled by those models? Other people's labour.

Every vibed and slop project? Sucking out the oxygen from actual people's work.

I completely agree with your last paragraph. While I'm no developer, I've followed FLOSS development for decades, and I'm exhausted by the tsunami of crap put out by suckers with the coding version of a sausage machine.
