I don’t think vibing is that an unsual a method of communication, most people have seen it and participated in it… rationalists in Berkeley just happen to be really bad at it.
Yeah, I’ve read that one, and I guess that would let someone who’ve had the same experience understand what you mean, but not someone who haven’t had the experience.
I feel similarly to when I read Valentine’s post on kensho—there is clearly something valuable, but I don’t have the slightest idea of what it is. (At least unlike with kensho, in this example it is possible to eventually have an objective account to point to, e.g. video.)

Unfortunately I can’t find a video example (don’t know what to search for) but I did write up a post that was trying to explain it from the inside. https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/jXHwYYnqynhB3TAsc/what-vibing-feels-like
