    this seems to be a heavily vibecoded project, the readme has at least one contradiction and weird statements and formatting.

    I mean now is it clicking ads or is it not? and what’s the reason for including the “tech stack”?

        Yikes! It’s really not hard to be upfront about it. Or do these dweebs understand that nobody likes this bullshit?

        As a software engineer who absolutely uses Claude for all his dumbass ideas, these “developers” don’t know the difference between a toy app and something production ready. Maybe this will get people to start reading source code (like the issue you linked above) and understand what they are deploying way more.
