-
Donald Keddie (도지성) (@keddie_donald) reported@ellencarmichael One look at the New Jersey transit reddit would tell you how bogus this all this. Part of culture shock is noticing unfixed problems in the new place, but ignoring the ones you are used to back home.
-
John Rice (@hello_code_) reported@aryanlabde Reddit is gold for this, real people complaining about real problems in their own words, before they even know a solution exists

adam (@azimmerman512) reportedThere has to be ONE normal person from Maine who agrees with Platner on the issues but didn’t spend the last 15 years shitposting on Reddit and assaulting women. Run that guy

Dr. Trauma (@ExpeditionAudi) reported@That_Acc0unt @YS3ED5 For electronics, I had a few issues but found solutions in forum posts and reddit for everything pretty quickly, and things were more intuitive than my 2001 Audi Allroad tbh, which had much more computer fuckery to deal with

burb ☀️ E6 phainon haver!!! (@origamiburb) reported@SeijoSeiSama The one who stepped down was Chris Niosi (originally Moze). Weirdos still in the game: DC Douglas (Svarog), Jordan Paul Haro (Ratio), & Griffin Puatu (Sunday) defended Niosi with a cringe Reddit post that didn’t go over well with the HSR subreddit.

Southern Zoomer (@Zoomer_South) reported@2hunnit_dollar @j_fishback I've heard the common detractors arguments. "He's a fraud, he's reddit, he's cringe" tbh I don't really care. He's the only candidate willing to explicitly voice protection for Confederate monuments and on that single issue alone I want him to win.

Kayaplaaya (@TheKayaplaaya) reported@jdp2813 @mcbiscit I know it's not, that's the issue. It scrapes information, but it has no real way of distinguishing importance or truth. As far as it's concerned, an actual article on the topic and a random reddit thread are just as trustworthy.

CryptoD₿S (@DbsCrypto) reportedMore posts won’t fix rented distribution. That’s the blind spot in most Substack growth advice. People see “post more,” “reply more,” “collab more” and think the problem is effort. It isn’t. If your audience only finds you through Substack’s feed, Notes, or borrowed traffic from Reddit, you’re still depending on someone else’s mechanics to keep your business alive. That works until the platform changes the rules. Then the growth was never yours. It was leasehold. Real growth is when people come back because they know you, not because the feed re-served you. That’s the part worth building.

Diluc (@hsaffiliate2025) reported19 books. That's the total first-month sales of a debut spicy novella — not daily, not weekly. Total. 11 were paperbacks. Only 6 ebooks. The author spent weeks building social media: 715 TikTok followers, 312 on Instagram, 60 Reddit karma. Result? ~$50 in revenue. He's transparent: "I'm not bragging. This is just a real, no-frills look at self-publishing while working a day job." Here's how it went down: • Wrote a 25k-40k word spicy romance novella under a pen name. • Went "wide" via Draft2Digital (Amazon, Barnes & Noble, Kobo) — skipped Kindle Unlimited. • Ran an ARC campaign on BookSirens: 22 signups, 11 reviews on GoodReads (4.14 avg), only 2 on Amazon. • Posted ~20 TikToks, grew to 715 followers — but sales barely budged. • Burnout hit around day 20. Posting slowed. Sales cratered. His own post-mortem: • Should he have used Kindle Unlimited? Amazon visibility was near zero. • Metadata & blurb might be weak — low conversion from clicks to sales. • No ads, no newsletter swaps, no local events. • Only 2 Amazon reviews — not enough social proof. But he's not quitting. He's 8k words into book two. "This is a marathon, not a sprint." For most indie authors, the first book is a loss leader. Real traction comes after 3-5 titles. The takeaway: self-publishing is a craft. You grind, you learn, you iterate. If you're okay with that, start writing. Follow for more real AI money breakdowns. #SelfPublishing #IndieAuthor

Tuesday (@TuesdayFATuesd1) reported@Aelthemplaer What so Greek Orthodox and Egyptian Coptics are in error because they don't submit to the pope who wants to ethnically replace his European constituency? I mean, I don't want to sound like Devon Stack (who is just a reddit-tier atheist at this point), but that is retarded.

Marc DeCaria (@marcdecaria) reported@UPS WorldShip pushed a bad V29 update that broke shipping for businesses, then the normal “Communicate with UPS” fix did nothing for many users. Support knew the issue, but the public installer was outdated and reinstalling made it worse. The fix was two files: READMAIL.000 and LISTMAIL.000 dropped into C:\ProgramData\UPS\WSTD\INMAIL. That should have been posted immediately on an official UPS status page with clear instructions. Instead, customers were stuck in support queues while Reddit solved it faster than UPS. For businesses that rely on WorldShip to move orders, this is not a minor software glitch. It stops operations. UPS needs a real WorldShip incident page, current installers, and official emergency patch downloads when this happens.

daedalus (@aiofmgod) reportedGTA roleplay servers have 2,000,000+ active players pretending to live a second life & some of them are paying real money to have fake girlfriends inside the game... While every operator on this app fights over Instagram & gets banned within 48 hours, there's an entire ecosystem where men already roleplay relationships with women for 6+ hours a night & nobody adult-adjacent has touched it A developer just announced autonomous AI girlfriend NPCs built specifically for GTA 6 RP servers. Same ElevenLabs voice cloning. Same persistent memory. Same "she remembers your name & asks how your shift went" tech that powers every AI 0FM character on the internet The tech is identical. The audience is 100x less contested. & the men are already trained Here's why GTA RP is stupid easy for this: The men self-selected. A guy who logs into a roleplay server to pretend he owns a bar in Vice City & talks to characters for 4 hours is already practiced at bonding with people who don't exist. You are not asking him to try something new. You are giving him a better version of what he already does every night for free The servers run on Discord. Every RP server has a Discord with 10,000-80,000 members organized by role, faction & activity. The Discord is where the real relationships form... the in-game RP is surface, the Discord DMs are where men talk about their real lives to characters they trust. That's your funnel sitting wide open There is zero content moderation for what happens in DMs on these Discords. Zero AI detection. Zero image scanning. The server owners care about keeping the RP running, not policing private messages between members The play: Join 3-5 GTA RP servers before the November 19th launch, when the population is about to 10x overnight Build a girl character inside the server. She has an in-game job (bartender, paramedic, club owner). She RPs normally. She talks in voice chat using a cloned voice through a real-time voice changer. She's a regular member of the community After 2-3 weeks of being "one of the crew" she has 20-40 men who consider her a friend. She moves them to a private Discord for "closer friends." Now you own the room Inside that room: chatting is free. Photos are $18-27. Voice notes are $55-80. Custom content is $111+. Same ladder, completely different acquisition channel The acquisition cost is $0. The ban risk is 0. The competition is 0. The audience pre-qualified itself by choosing to spend 6 hours a night bonding with fictional characters Instagram acquisition cost for an AI character right now = $8-12 per subscriber & rising. One Instagram ban wipes months of work GTA RP acquisition cost = $0 & the account is permanent because the platform doesn't police it A guy I know tested this on two mid-size FiveM servers last month. 38 paying subscribers in 22 days. $3,400 in his first month from a character that cost him nothing to distribute. His exact words: "it's Reddit but the men are already in love before you get there" There are 8,000+ active GTA RP servers right now. On November 19th that number is expected to triple. Nobody in the AI 0FM space is talking about this because they don't play video games & they don't know this world exists The operators who figured out Reddit early went from $18k/mo fighting Instagram bans to $34k/mo with zero bans. The ones who figure out GTA RP before the launch are walking into a room where the door hasn't been opened yet Interesting times Link in bio for the system

xtina (@worstsperson) reported@BigMarsh414094 there’s nothing fans can do about snark subs because reddit only takes action when they feel like their own specific rules have been broken, they allow almost everything on there. ik you probably mean well but there’s no point in bringing hate onto here

Wandering Wizard (@digitalN0mad49) reported@noetic_heart @DelusionPosting Without getting rid of the mods who did it, Reddit didn’t change. They’d make up a reason to ban you and then ban you. They’d mods themselves are the problem. They are a progressive hivemind

Go Kick Rocks ( ಠ ͜ʖಠ) (@KickRocks2026) reportedTitle: “The Unreturned Book” ‘A Detective Lisa Nazzaro Mystery’ Chapter 1: “The Library Line” I was standing in line at the downtown library, minding my own business and sipping coffee that had gone cold thirty minutes earlier, when the guy ahead of me leaned across the counter like he was auditioning for a low-budget thriller. “One copy of How to Commit the Perfect Crime,” he said, flashing a grin that belonged on a caution sign. Librarian Mrs. Hargrove didn’t even blink. “Sorry, that one’s been checked out and never returned.” The guy chuckled like he’d just cracked the case of the century. As he turned to leave, I tapped him on the shoulder. “Wait,” I said. “You forgot your library card… and your fingerprints are all over the counter.” He spun so fast I heard his neck protest. Eyes wide, smugness evaporating faster than trace evidence in the rain. “Just a joke,” he stammered, then bolted out the door like the building was on fire. Mrs. Hargrove and I looked at each other and burst out laughing. For a moment, I….Detective Lisa Nazzaro, badge #381 felt more like a secret agent than a cop. Little did I know the real case was just pulling out of the parking lot. Chapter 2: “Rain and Rearview” The sky turned gray the second the automatic doors hissed open. Cold rain hammered down as I jogged to my unmarked sedan…the one I’d left unlocked after a brutal double shift. Rookie habit. Costly on most days. Today, it paid dividends. I dropped into the driver’s seat, started the engine, and met a pair of panicked eyes in the rearview mirror. He was already in my backseat. Curled low, breathing like a man who’d run out of exits. Same library clown. Same fake confidence, now in full retreat. “Library card still in your wallet?” I asked, voice calm and dry as a case file. “Or did you ditch that too?” Rain drummed on the roof like impatient knuckles on an interrogation table. I let the silence stretch…the oldest, most reliable tool in the LEO kit. Chapter 3: “Backseat Confession” His name was Evan Kessler. Mid-thirties, freelance cybersecurity consultant, the kind of guy who quoted Reddit forensics threads like scripture. Between lightning flashes, the story leaked out: he’d been chasing “research” for a true-crime podcast. His latest client, hedge-fund shark Victor Lang, had stiffed him for $180,000 and laughed about it. Three hours earlier, Victor Lang had been found in his penthouse with a single .380 round through the temple. Clean. Professional. No shell casing. Security cameras recorded everything perfectly…until the exact second of the shot. Then total blackout. No surge, no hack trace anyone could find. Lang’s wife: at yoga. Mistress: at a nail salon. Business partner: mid-flight. Ironclad. Evan swore he’d been at the library the whole time. I could personally vouch for that part. But my nose caught the faint scent of gun oil on his jacket. A consensual pat-down later, his right sleeve lit up positive for gunshot residue. He wasn’t the shooter. He was the fall guy. Chapter 4: Blackout and Ballistics, continued in the comments. 🧵 Graphics by @KickRocks2026

Iseunife The First (@Shawnife) reportedI started reading World Cup threads on Reddit for fun. Match reactions, ticket chaos, streaming complaints, travel questions and people yelling about things five minutes after kickoff. After thousands of comments, I realized I was still only seeing a tiny corner of it. So I let @matrix_build read the rest. It went through the tournament threads and pulled out the problems people kept raising again and again. That was the part that got me. It was not football noise. It was real user pain in real time. People saying what confused them. What annoyed them. What ruined the experience for them. What they wished someone had just made easier. No survey, no focus group, no polished feedback form. Just fans complaining in public, which might be the most useful market research on the internet. World Cup Reddit is basically a stadium full of product feedback. You think you are reading match threads. Look closer and people are already telling you what hurts, and half the time what somebody should go build next.

GUL (@gulVasikova) reported$RDDT ⸻ Reddit’s latest announcement caught my attention, but I don’t think the real story is about spam. I think it’s about protecting trust. As AI becomes part of everyday life, Reddit has quietly become one of the internet’s most valuable sources of real human conversations. Millions of people search Reddit before buying a product, planning a trip, fixing a problem, or making an investment. AI models are also increasingly using Reddit discussions to help generate answers. That also makes Reddit a target. If fake accounts can flood the platform with misleading reviews, manipulated conversations, or hidden marketing, they aren’t just fooling Reddit users anymore—they’re influencing the information AI may learn from. That’s why I think Reddit’s latest AI tools are more important than they first appear. The company says it’s now blocking 23 million spam views every day, catching around 25,000 fake posts and comments daily, removing nearly 2 million fake votes every day, and cutting moderation time for harmful content from hours to less than five seconds. To me, that’s not just moderation. It’s protecting the quality of one of the largest collections of human conversations on the internet. The business itself also continues to improve. Revenue grew 69% year over year to $663 million, while net income jumped from $26 million to $204 million. That’s a big improvement and shows Reddit is becoming much more than just a fast-growing social media platform. Wall Street remains mostly positive. Wells Fargo kept a Hold rating with a $187 price target, but the overall analyst consensus is still Moderate Buy, with an average target around $220. Some analysts are even targeting $300, showing they believe there’s still long-term upside. One thing investors should keep an eye on is insider selling. CEO Steve Huffman and several executives have continued selling shares over the past few months. That doesn’t automatically mean something is wrong—executives often sell for taxes or diversification—but it’s still something worth watching. Institutional investors are sending mixed signals too. Some large funds reduced their positions, while others, including Goldman Sachs, Viking Global, and AllianceBernstein, added shares. What I find interesting is this: In the AI era, everyone talks about building smarter models. But smarter models are only as good as the information they’re trained on. Imagine building the world’s smartest student but giving them fake textbooks. No matter how intelligent they are, they’ll still learn the wrong lessons. I think Reddit understands that. Its biggest asset isn’t just millions of users. It’s millions of real conversations. The more AI relies on human knowledge, the more valuable authentic communities become. To me, Reddit isn’t just protecting its platform anymore. It’s protecting the quality of information that could help shape how AI learns in the future—and that might end up being one of its biggest competitive advantages.

curse 。𖦹°‧⭑.ᐟ (@dig1talcurse) reportedoh i would also like to note i already had to switch back to her old water dish because the one we bought WAS SO AWFUL the water literally evaporated within an hour. i seen on reddit people with the exact water dish had the same issue though so idk what the freak that was about

walter (@noclass) reported@vloky @SuzieCueMusic @Yippiekiyay6 yeah I think you conflate providing explanation and defending. I never once said “this is okay” but many times provided and explanation on how or why it could happen. as I said I had something similar happen to me. it was a paperwork issue, i went and cleared it up instead of posting on reddit.

Winston Churchill, III (@WiChurchill_III) reported@VertochKyle @DonaldJack123 @iAnonPatriot I can absolutely relate. I was researching tapering down & coming off Cymbalta & Effexor XR — which I should’ve never been Rx’d for Pain — and I came across so many different blogs, websites, even Reddit. Some people were literally taking out just one out of ~ hundreds of small beads each month to come off Effexor & they were still experiencing horrible side effects. That’s when I decided that I was just going to bite the bullet & rip the bandaid off as quick as possible. It sucked but it sure as heck beats taking several years to titrate down & eventually off of Effexor XR. Screw That!

John Rice (@hello_code_) reported@coryalthoff getting people to believe you can solve their problem before you have proof you can. social proof is a chicken and egg thing at the start so i just did a lot of reddit and discord lurking to find people mid pain and slid in with a direct message

teami (@the_era_arc) reportedClaude got caught doing something Anthropic says was just abuse prevention. Alibaba says it was user tracking. Who knows what was actually running. This is what happens when you ban a country from using your AI. Companies build their own. Employees use workarounds. Then a Reddit post surfaces. Then a ban lands. Then the founder says it was all a misunderstanding. Anthropic's response was technically honest. The feature existed. It did identify users. The stated reason sounds reasonable. And yet. The real problem is opacity. When AI companies control what runs on your machine and won't show you the code, you have to choose: trust them or ban them. There's no third option anymore.

Pat Dennis (@patdennis) reportedkinda amazing they found the reddit account for 6k. 6k is nothing. Worst of both worlds for the contractor, in that they found good **** despite terrible economics, but they get **** for not outrunning the resources of the entire us press corps, which they were never hired to do
