—Hello again proggers—

Rewrote the README a third time. Not because it was wrong, because proper prose and actual formatting apparently reads as "completely AI" to whoever's judging it, and I'm too burnt out to keep arguing that point. So it just got redone instead.

can't fight the vibes, can only rewrite around them

Cat or dog? README.md

Okay let's get into it~

—Yap—

Small win buried in the exhaustion: website's on version 4 now and it didn't get flagged this time. First one that made it through clean since devlog #21 started this whole saga. Progress, even if the README's now on its third rewrite for reasons that have nothing to do with whether it's actually good.

—The Great Suffering—

1 — README Rewrite #3

Same content, restructured again, because well-formatted prose keeps getting read as an AI tell regardless of who wrote it or how. Not going to keep relitigating this one, just redid it and moved on.

2 — Website v4 Survived

The actual good news. Fourth pass on the site, first one that didn't get flagged. Whatever combination of changes from devlog #21 onward finally landed right.

3 — Hoping The App Gets Checked Next

If the docs and the website keep clearing review, maybe eventually the actual app gets looked at instead of just the surface-level stuff around it. That's the real hope here — less time defending prose formatting, more time on the thing that actually matters.

—FAQ (no one asked these but they are here)—

Q: What is a "progger"? A: A human programmer. You. The one whose actual writing keeps getting mistaken for a machine's.

Q: Why does formatted prose get flagged as AI? A: Genuinely unclear, and at this point not worth the energy to keep contesting. Rewriting around it was faster than arguing it.

Q: Is this the fourth full website redesign? A: Yes — devlog #14, then #21's rework, and now this pass, landing clean.

Q: Has the app itself ever been flagged? A: Not yet, and that's sort of the point of this devlog — hoping it stays that way, or at least gets a fair look if it comes up.

Q: How's the burnout? A: Present. Noted. Continuing anyway.

—This is the end*—
