📣 Big announcement 📣
I’ve been waiting a long time to build something really cool with Appwrite Cloud and to experiment with vibe coding at scale. With that in mind, I spent the last 3 weekends watching Netflix while vibe coding to build something I felt the open source world has been needing for a while.
So… 🥁 I’m very happy to introduce my latest side project: @refetch_io - the open source Hacker News alternative. A place for you to explore the latest tech discussions and news.
On the technical side, Refetch was 100% vibe coded and is fully powered by Appwrite Cloud (DB, Auth, Functions, Hosting) - and it’s 100% open source. I took vibe coding to the extreme and literally wrote zero lines of code myself (though I did tons of reviews). I’m really happy with the results - in total, it took me about 15 net hours to get everything ready and fully functional. It was a refreshing mental shift towards execution instead of traditional coding.
The platform isn’t just open source, it’s also aiming to be radically transparent. You can see how many people are online, how many visitors Refetch has had previously, and even watch our ranking algorithms in action. No secrets, no bias, not powered by a startup accelerator. The goal is to take this approach to the extreme - a place tech people can trust.
Ironically, we’re launching today on HN itself - should be interesting to see how that turns out. So, check Refetch out, and I hope you enjoy it: refetch.io
PS: If anyone wants Netflix recommendations for shows that work well while vibe coding, drop me a message below 👇

why pay $15/month when I can spend months building and maintaining my own backend for free?
