The riff-raff have been officially evicted from the App Store. Apple has begun a ruthless purge of 'vibe coding' apps like Replit and Anything, citing 'approval guidelines' that are really just a velvet rope for the digital elite.

For a moment, it seemed anyone with a pulse and a prompt could be a developer. New apps surged by 84% as non-technical 'vibe coders' flooded the market with AI-generated software. It was a tacky, crowded mess. Apple’s decision to block these tools is a necessary act of platform hygiene.

Software engineering should be like a private jet—exclusive, expensive, and handled by professionals. Instead, we had a 'state of AI psychosis' where every social media scroller thought they were the next Zuckerberg. The 235,800 new apps added in Q1 were mostly digital clutter.

Apple is pushing its own 'Xcode' tools instead, ensuring that if you want to build on their turf, you play by their institutional rules. This is the 'Digital Enclosure' in action. It ensures that the 'Mythos' of autonomous creation remains a corporate privilege, not a populist toy.

High-end coding is returning to its roots: a bespoke service for those who can afford the overhead. The dream of the 'deskilled' millionaire is dead. If you want to vibe, do it in private.
