Flappy Nostrich - I'm Not Schnorring Edition image A pretty big update! - Server side score validation! A side effect is all current high scores will be gone as they have no validation, but future scores will be much harder to fake. - More characters! The Original Nostrich, You, & Knuckles. My plan for this is to enable user created characters, published to Nostr! - More better performance. The app has been refactored and many improvements have been made to image caching & Nostr connections. It went from a slideshow to 💯 playable on my slow testing target, so hopefully it's better for you too. - Further improvements to overall system stability and other minor adjustments have been made to enhance the user experience. Please give it a test and let me know of any issues you find. This has some major changes and everything seems good in my testing, but more eyes may help find some bugs. Thanks for playing! #FlappyNostrich

My mind is blown by vibe coding. This started as a joke/meme. Now I'm maintaining an app and it's got server side components to improve performance and validate user scores. Mind totally blown 🤯 My only coding skills are a bit of python and hacking together bash scripts for small tasks on my Linux machines.

I've never coded anything more than a copy paste bash script before.
