Lovable is marketed to non developers, so their core users wouldn't understand a security flow if it flashed red. A lot of my non dev friends were posting their cool new apps they built on LinkedIn last year [0]. Several were made on lovable. It's not on their users to understand these flaws

The apps all look the same with a different color palette, and makes for an engaging AI post on LinkedIn. Now they are mostly abandoned, waiting for the subscription to expire... and their personal data to get exposed I guess

Developers with decades of experience still make basic security holes. The general public are screwed once they start hosting their own apps and serving on the Internet.

There's something so innocent about the early days when even Microsoft thought we'd be running Personal Web Servers and hosting our own websites in a peer-to-peer fashion.

Although cynically, in 1996 Microsoft would probably tell you anything you wanted to hear if it got you using Internet Explorer.

The Personal Web Server is ideal for intranets, homes, schools, small business workgroups and anyone who wants to set up a personal Web server.

You see this type of template response copy pasted basically under any post/comment of this kind.

I think at the end of the day we’ll be able to look back and see what/who fared better, based on actual data.
