I love when I look up a project and it's like "okay to build this, install poetry" and I click poetry and it goes "poetry should be installed with pipx" and I click pipx and it says "on windows, you should install pipx with scoop" so I click scoop and then my brain melts out my ears because this is too many layers deep

Fluxer, the "Discord Alternative". Be skeptical. 

Things to consider before getting excited about Fluxer, the self described "Discord alternative" which is "Open Source":

1. Dev admits that large portions were vibe-coded in a rush by AI-coding assistant. Project doesn't have a reliable copyright claim on its own code.

3. No aims to improve security compared to Discord, will be subjected to the same legal pressures with no additional user guarantees.

What is AI good for?

They're not investing billions in it just so you don't have to write your own emails and your kids never learn to draw.
