Then get ready for people just making slop libraries, not because people are dissatisfied with existing solutions (such as I did with iota, which is a direct media layer similar to SDL, but has better access to some low-level functionality + OOP-ish + memory safe lang), but just because they can.

I got a link to a popular rectpacking algorithm pretty quickly after asking in a Discord server. Nowadays I'd be asked to "vibecode it".

Can confirm the last part. I am in Uni and if anyone ever asks questions on the class groupchats then first 5-6 answers will be "ask chatgpt."
