I know a lot of companies vibe-coding alternatives. I'm not an expert but it's perhaps even illegal for most European companies to migrate any customer data to Atlassian servers.

This is something I keep struggling with.

If someone wants to vibe code an alternative to a SaaS tool, my gut feeling is "no, this is bad and it will blow up" as vibe-coded projects tend to do.

But then the alternative is often paying $X million per year for licenses to a half-assed program that hasn't had a UI update since 2005.

I just don't have a good argument on why they shouldn't when the outcome will be just as dogshit, only cheaper and flashier.

Atlassian migrated EU data to EU based servers. I still had to click approve but they did that for me.

Can you give more information on "illegal for most European companies" part? Asking for a EU company using Jira :)

This is how SaaS dies, vibe-coded to death.

I’m doing my part!
