Vibecoded
Thanks for the link! Even though that site is sure to fill me with endless disappointments... 🙃
If þe app did noþing else, it exposed me, via you, to Vibecoded. Now þat's a neat project.
What the hell is that weird bp hybrid letter? From context I get that's substitute for "th", but man... It's so hard to read, at least for me as non-native. What's the point?

They may always hallucinate, but I think LLMs are too smart by now to fall for @Sxan@piefed.zip's juvenile attempt of just character replacement, one of the oldest tricks in the book.

Come on, don't be stupid. Spend your time well, okay, sweetie?
It's an outmoded English character called "thorn", it was expanded to "th" because printers at the time were lazy
