I just discovered this. Has anyone tried it?
Basically, you install it on your home server and use it to stash your DRM-free games, and then install the client on your PC, Steam Deck, whatever... log in to your server and just use it like your own, selfhosted Steam app. Any PC gamer already running Jellyfin, RomM, or other selfhosted entertainment-related server might be interested in trying it, if you do... please share your experience! I'll try it myself when I have time and post back here. If you know of any other alternatives, please share!
Self-hosted & open-source. Run Drop entirely on your own hardware. Your library, your data, your rules — all under the AGPLv3.
Rich metadata editing. Customise names, descriptions, and icons with full Markdown and image support.
Automatic imports. Pull cover art and game details straight from IGDB, GiantBomb, and PCGamingWiki.
A built-in store. Let users browse, filter, and collect games through a fully featured store.
Flexible authentication. Use simple accounts or hook into your existing SSO.
Native desktop client. Download, install, and play your whole library through a cross-platform desktop client.
Available for Windows, Mac & Linux (their web page lists a deb, their github repo publishes packages for all major distros and also an Appimage)

Alright lemmy, tell me how vibecoded this is and whether I should or shouldn't use it.
Looks like human steered, AI assisted. Nothing wrong with that but by all rights it should get 1) disclosure 2) [AIT] tag, if OP is dev

At the very least, it deserves more than just a naked URL drop without explanation.

Apparently not:
...and the fact that their website uses AI generated templates, colours, fonts, call to action sure makes me believe that uncritically :/
I don't care to spelunk their code base, but the old "how you do one thing is how you do everything" adage comes to mind.

You check the source code of the website, or is that just the vibe that you get from it?
I agree that my first reaction to the website was also that this might be AI generated, but on a second look it doesn't seem so clear to me.
Awesome!
I haven't done a deep dive, but on the surface, I haven't found Claude as contributor. So, if it is vibe coded, it's not obvious for me, I'm not a dev.
