I saw this comment a while ago, and I still stand by it: If vibe coding works, where are all the "million dollar idea" apps?
Security issues aside, HAVING the idea is the hardest part, much harder than coding an app. If you have a genuinely good idea, it's pretty easy to find someone to help build it, because that person also wants in on a cash-cow. Lack of ideas is the bigger problem with launching apps today, which a million vibe coders have realized.
Not necessarily. I've got a very good idea on a niche market with no players. Can't find a person willing to help.
