The extra useless text Codex has added to this vibe coded website has made it impossible to parse.

I want to give the creator some benefit of doubt on an original idea, but in this case the AI has overcomplicated it beyond recognition.

This happens to me a lot as well. Has anyone learnt how to fix it? I haven't found a good way for AI to write good landing page copy, it always seems to become verbose and over-specific.

    The title alone gives it away, inanimate/abstract subjects "saying" things is one of the latest LLM tics.

    Idea seems to be interesting, being able to domain-verify a QR code's issuer. However, yes the website and repo is super vibe-codey and unnecessarily complex written

    Sounds like it might be worth writing it yourself.

    what I hate the most about codex is how it puts random useless information in shit. Every time I make a change it feels compelled to write that down in the UI somewhere. "Codex make the save button close the settings window as well". I will then have to say after that "Codex remove the text you added to the save description telling users it closes the settings window THEY DO NOT NEED TO FUCKING READ THAT"

      Yes that's the most frustrating one by far, I've been trying to find some "skills" to fix that but it doesn't look any good one even exists

      Claude does this too, is there anyway to not waste my fucking waking hours to fix it's plop.

I've always been a fan of making things with no obvious purpose or benefit, but I don't get what drives someone to do it with AI.

How are you supposed to know that the key is right? Does this expect users to verify the domain is correct? The web has shown us that that is a very unreliable process.
