Indeed, your half-broken prototypes that are not worth sharing with the world can be now 10x the scale.

But seriously, I have not seen anyone get far with vibecoded hobby projects. The problem is that removing the pain, the frustration, and the triumph also removes any emotional attachment you have to the project to keep it alive. If it's not making you money, if you're not learning anything, and if everyone can vibecode the same thing... well, it still gives you some short-term rush - as if by magic, your words birthed a piece of software - but then what? Why keep going? Why fix bugs, why keep improving it? If you look back at the past several months of "Show HN"-style posts, it's not pretty.

I've got my hobby project fully working the way I want and ready for the masses. I just am stuck trying to get the app in google/apple stores. Its a mental block, I'm stuck on taking the time to get it through the hoops and then don't really no where to start or want to for that matter with the marketing aspects.
