Using Claude to submit PRs to huge open source projects is stupid, for sure.

But if I need a quick tool, like a secret Santa name picker, I’ll just have Claude build it, push it to a repo, link the repo on some PaaS and have a working, deployed app in 20 minutes. No ads, no accounts & no signing up to random websites. I can build it exactly like I want it and include fun Easter eggs for my family.

Building it myself would take 2-3 hours, and the code quality would be drastically better, but that just doesn’t matter.

People aren't complaining about that. What you do in the privacy of your own computer is only your problem. The issue is people pouring a whole "arduous" 2 hours into vibecoding a project, then advertising it and posting to communities everywhere as a revolutionary bullet-proof high-quality project asking for visibility and contributions.
