The authors experience is not mine. I have an app/website combo deployed that is getting 60+ visitors a day and the app is getting downloaded weekly. Both are growing. All "vibe" coded.
Now I have 20 YOE in software too before the booon of AI.

The hard part were actually the sales but I'm getting quite some, going physically(!) to places.
Hosting costs $50, revenue is ~1k/month, nothing special but its basically on autopilot.
I did have the app for 6 months for free on a first client where they would give me feedback bugs etc until i felt it was stable.
I don't even have a pricing page, i try to see how much i get can from each client, from $5/mo to $100/mo
That seems ethical. Vibes based fees.
Every feature cost me the same (tending to $0), but i price them as i see fit.
