A Lobsters user proposed splitting or removing the vibecoding tag, arguing that it had lost its classification value by covering LLMs broadly and even posts briefly mentioning AI-built projects. The author agreed with readers’ desire to filter LLM-generated or LLM-focused material but argued that the tag’s current scope pushes away original technical content and contributors. This is a community discussion, not an announcement of an actual policy change. A proposal to divide tags should be distinguished from an adopted moderation rule.
