I don’t vibe code. I’m pretty proud of that fact. I like to create my own code, even though I’m painfully aware of how bad at it I am. I’m not a developer and I never will be. I can put out the simplest of things and be happy about that. It’s more than some people can do, so there’s no real need to feel bad about...

Today I found a post from Sarah Mathey that makes very good points regarding conventional commits. I’ll quote a few here:
