Vibe coders who enjoy code? I thought the whole idea of vibe coding is that you don't enjoy code, don't want to ever see code, and just let AI do everything YOLO mode?

I love coding, but I love vibe coding even more. I look at the code, do proper git commits manually and review the changes mostly. Vibe coding helps me do in a few hours what would have taken me weeks to make/debug/document.

I don't follow. That seems to be heavy on bloat. Or maybe I'm just happy with vis (https://github.com/martanne/vis). I don't know.
