Clawdbot/Moltbot Popularity
People are discussing the popularity of Clawdbot (now Moltbot), a tool related to Claude Code, and its creator, with some commenting on copyright issues and the name change.
By the way the person presenting in the first pic is @steipete the creator of @moltbot (formerly Clawdbot) Last year he co-hosted a claude code anonymous meetup in London where he explored how he codes with AI which was really goated Crazy how fast Molty has grown this year
im generally anti-copyright and pro-open source, but Anthropic had no choice really, clawdbot now has more installs than claude code itself lmao i dont love the new name moltbot, and dont think it’s as catchy for a few reasons, but the product is revolutionary, doesnt matter
