Ask HN: Is Web Development in a rut?

1•falloutx•3w ago
The industry is kind of in a bad spot, and I dont think its due to AI or Vibe Coding, because thats still niche. I am talking about the general sense of the market.

We are producing too much software on the web, yet nothing seems to work well. There is no creativity on the web as sites just look the same and even if we make a creative site, its not possible to get any traffic when google hogs it via AI summary or people dont even ask google about stuff in other cases.

Its now increasingly hard to make any money on the internet, we used to have blogs and individual sites making some money for the author, but now thats also not possible. Even if we dont talk about money, the websites all look the same, ask similar amount of money, in a similar way. I mean how many subscription services we think a user can have? At least some mobile apps give lifetime deals but on the desktop web thats increasingly rare. Is every site just a copy of a copy of copy of another site now? This started a long back but with AI its gonna be taken to an extreme level but I am hoping in few years we may find a way to break the cycle.

The "industry" is a couple hundred billion per year

I think its fine

Now with AI - you can cry about it or learn how to use it. Simple

Im making video games on the side I never thought possible - for example - all by myself and a 40$ subscription

Things are changing

And its never going to be this cheap ever again so grab it while its hot

Because by next year 2027 the price with be 10x

I too do video game dev as my offterm job, I would say coding is like 5% of a game, and the market is more flooded than Florida in summer. I shifted from Unity to Godot and usually just make games for myself or just chill on gamejams. Money in video games dev is also rare, but its more enjoyable than web dev and again AI's impact on the video game dev is very minimal.

I enjoyed Pieter's vibe coding jam: https://jam.pieter.com/ and I made some horrible games, but atleast its funny.
