None of the thoughts and ideas in this post are a reflection of those of Replit Inc, Repl.it Inc, NeoReason Inc, or any employees of the aforementioned companies besides myself. Also none of the content in this post is acting as an advertisement, but simply as a public complain against a company.
So as a lot of you know, I work for Replit. Online IDE, yada yada. Now, as lots of companies do, we have some competition. Most of the time (like CodePen and CodeHS) we don't have conflict occurring between all of us. Yeah, Glitch tries copying us from time to time, but that's just expected in SF ans SV at this point. My major problem is with CodingRooms, and ESPECIALLY their CEO, Sasha. Now, Sasha is who I'd call a modern day Zuccyberg, an asshole. He spends his time writing blog-post after blog-post about how Replit bad CodingRooms good. He has FOUR LINKS IN HIS FOOTER comparing Replit products to CodingRooms, one of which hasn't even been released yet (and isnt meant to compete with codingrooms), another which was sunsetted months ago, and a third which isn't even meant to compete with CodingRooms. I'm not even on the engineering team (I do community management) and it still makes me irritated every time he comes out with something else which is a ripoff of Replit. Simplest example of this is our file tree:
Replit's Filetree (been this way for years):Codingroom's Filetree (iirc brand new):
