After nine years of grinding, Replit found its market. Can it keep it?

I've seen bots promoting Replit on Steam forums of indie games.

If this is the way they are marketing their product, I don't see it as having a future. What I've seen in the Dwarf Fortress forums alone makes me want to avoid the company with a 10' pole.

Let us not forget how replit tried to cancel Riju (an open source project from one of the early devs which does something similar)

Edit: looks like they succeeded or the author moved on
