i have seen so many people say that, but the app stores/package managers aren't being flooded with thousands of vibe coded apps, meanwhile facebook is basically ai slop. can you share your github? or a gist of some of these "codebases"

The AI slop software I've been making with Claude is intended for my own personal use. I haven't read most of the code and certainly wouldn't want to publish it under my own name. But it does work, it scratches my itches, fills my needs. I'm not going to publish the whole thing because that's a whole can of worms, but to hopefully satisfy your curiosity, here is the main_window.py of my tag-based file manager. It's essentially a CRUD application built with sqlite and pyside6. It doesn't do anything terribly adventurous, the most exciting it gets is keeping track of tag co-occurances so it can use naive Bayesian classifiers to recommend tags for files, order files by how likely they are to have a tag, etc.
Please enjoy. I haven't actually read this myself, only verified the behavior: https://paste.debian.net/hidden/c6a85fac

The state of claude code presently is definitely good enough to churn out low effort shovelware. Insofar as that isn't evidently happening, I can only speculate about the reasons. In no order, it may be one or several of these reasons: Lots of developers feel threatened by the technology and won't give it a serious whirl. Non-developers are still stuck in the mindset of writing software being something they can't do. The general public isn't as aware of the existence of agentic coding tools as we on HN are. The appstores are being flooded with slop, as they always have been, and some of that slop is now AI slop, but doesn't advertise this fact, and the appstore algorithms generally do some work to suppress the visibility of slop anyway. Most people don't have good ideas for new software and don't have the reflex to develop new software to scratch their itches, instead they are stuck in the mentality of software consumers. Just some ideas..
