Ask HN: Is Anthropic doing too much vibe coding?

The Claude app and Claude Code have been an unusable and buggy mess for me lately, has anyone else been experiencing this? Most of my messages get swallowed after sending them or the responses get interrupted or dropped. Sometimes entire conversations disappear from the sidebar only to reappear later. I’ve learnt that when a message appears not to have gone through or have errored midway, it often comes back with a valid response if I wait a bit and then restart the app.

I wonder if it has anything to do with Anthropic eagerly embracing vibe coding.

    Have you seen Claude Code's TUI React codebase? The amount of pointless over-engineering for what is effectively just a terminal text application is pretty astounding.

    The ones I've personally noticed is the repeating permissions for the same command, rereading the same files over and over.

      Same, glm 5.1 has been so good. I used it with OpenCode, no noticeable differences

    the industry as a whole is doing too much vibe coding. someone is paying the piper eventually.

    We ask ourselves this every day. I suspect Google is equally guilty
