I was excited to participate in this challenge initially to get back into bubble and try learn the platform again. I don't care about the prizes. Though, after using bubble again for the first time in years-- I can't in good faith keep using this software bro. In 2026, using bubble is a MASSIVE anti-pattern.
To get something set up, you will have to manually configure something in 10 to 20 steps that usually takes 1 to 3 steps in other tools or agentic coding..
I love the way bubble is geared to be full stack. Which is good. Though, it does it in a way by moving away from basic industry standards...
Their own way of doing things (standards) is 10 to 20x more inefficient and confusing or gets very convoluted at scale... because if their custom standards.
I think team needs to evaluate their current vision for the product
