Any other developers feeling a bit depressed after vibecoding? I am faster thanks to AI, but it doesn’t really feel good…

Things that took me weeks now take days - its bittersweet resignation. Speed is the new metric I fear.

I fear that too… bittersweet indeed

It feels great. So much more I can accomplish. Still enjoy writing code too

It certainly speeds things up.

But.

We enjoy programming because of the mental challenge. We enjoy mentally visualizing the components the flow and describing our vision in a precise, technical language.

Vibe Coding is a different challenge. It's articulating what you want in a very informative way.

Those who enjoyed the former don't feel the same enjoyment doing the latter.
