    Not sure why you'd use this sketchy vibecoded proprietary app over the same thing that's open source and existed for a while

      Unless you&#x27;re selling to grandparents over 50-70, nobody says yj_nearbyclasses or &quot;Nearby Glasses&quot;.

      &quot;ZuckOff&quot; is a better quality marketing name for an app like this, vibecoded or not.

      The media and already consumers have talked more about &quot;ZuckOff&quot; than &quot;Nearby Glasses&quot; so a winner has already been chosen.

        Decided by whom?

        This feels like astroturfing. The amount of new users recommending and hyping this proprietary product seems odd.
