Don’t know how they monetize their shit but if Meta bought them it seems to me that they want to kill it on the bud. That’s Meta MO

    1. The whole thing as far as I understand it was "vibe coded" it doesn't take much to spin up a new startup without a patent blocking it.

    2. There's no users/infrastructure to retain. The whole thing is just smokes and mirrors all the way down. I'm actually impressed and jealous someone will be making bank from this.
