>You can't vibe code without using a service from a big company, and obeying their rules.

In abstract, probably true, but so vague to be useless.

I can probably vibe code with qwen on debian. But are you then going to pivot from your microsoft example to like, my ISP? And if I point out I can move to an ISP with less than 5 staff, you will probably just move the goalposts further right?

Might be better to let you establish your goalposts first hey.

What has your experience vibecoding with Qwen on Debian been like so far? What tooling and approaches have you found to work best?

I use it on Windows, I am just loosely aware that I could run it on debian if I wished. I use 7b and its roughly as useful as GPT 3.5. I dont have any tools linked to it yet.

Does that mean "pretty useful" or "a total waste of time"? I never got much useful code out of GPT 3.5.

I'm implementing an MCP client using Qwen3 4B and its tool call capabilities are impressive! I'm sure it will only improve and the 30B is probably already much better.

What are you running it in, ollama? Did you have to install some additional software to enable it to call tools (also via MCP?)

LM Studio. No additional software but I implemented the MCP client myself using the typescript-sdk[0]
