Kahris (@chrissotraidis) reported@8trius So, there are reddit threads about this, and the general consensus is that there many, many, problems with Superman 64. The gameplay sucks, there's numerous bugs, the music sucks, and inconsistencies across the entire game that are infuriating and make no sense. It would take a seriously dedicated person to polish that ****. I'm sure it can be done, but it would be a massive time sink into something that is universally disliked.

sleep deprived fellow 🇨🇦 (@regfunkid) reported@DrivetheTacos @KissEmrys Nope! Quite easy, actually. I believe there’s a discord server for the game already, and if not, ask on Reddit for people to play with.
-
HumnAndroid (@AndroidD_ESheep) reported@KABRAXB1 @YoinkSpecialist I miss the days when **** like that happens and you just find some solution on reddit or solve the problem yourself without being a whiny ***** on twitter about it Also when glitches and bugs happen they have fun and laugh at the bugs

Balboa927 (@balboa92777626) reported@EndWokeness Reddit is actively taking it down

Edoardo Stradella (@e_stradella) reported@lilyraynyc @VorticonCmdr Maybe it's just me but it seems google is already throttling down reddit in AI overviews, still going strong in gemini tho

Violet | 🍏 (@Sirulien) reported@ClaireStrifeX02 Oh for sure. They don’t care about protecting their existing players, not even their brainrot discord/reddit mods do 😵💫 Too scared to put their foot down out of fear of backlash.

Chris Mizo (@MizoChris) reportedRTX 4090 RMA? SOL when you know it's needed... After a Reddit user sends his problematic ZOTAC RTX 4090 back FOUR different times! ZOTAC replaced it with something a little better… a brand-new RTX 5090 at no extra cost! • The RTX 4090 reportedly suffered from BSODs, freezing, artifacts, and PCIe errors • The customer went through four separate RMAs over roughly a year • His original 3-year warranty had about one month remaining • After the latest RMA took around 30 days, he contacted ZOTAC for an update • ZOTAC ultimately upgraded him from an RTX 4090 → RTX 5090 • He reportedly paid nothing extra for the upgrade • There is one catch: the replacement RTX 5090 reportedly only carries a 30-day warranty Four RMAs on a flagship GPU is absolutely unforgivable, but replacing a 4090 with a 5090 is one hell of a way to make it right. Zotac deserves much more respect.?

ChadOfDuty (@CODPersonal) reported@TheCutthroatGuy Update: COD CM replied on the Reddit thread that the problem causing this has been identified and they are targeting a fix for S5 Reloaded.

Rahul (@PeatyRM) reportedAnyone else think gut health advice is too vague? There are so many nuances to gut health, eg. stool colour, stool form, changes in stool mid bm, nausea, headaches, bloating in specific areas, back pain etc. But there aren't names for extremely specific symptoms so you end up having to search for stories of people improving their gut health, and try to work out if their symptoms are similar to yours. I don't think I've ever come across anyone who has described my exact symptoms. Then, you have the problem of people not really knowing what optimal gut health is. There are so many reddit posts of people saying they cured their IBS or SIBO and then you read further and find out they basically just mean they're managing their symptoms a lot better and still have the occasional flare-up. Also, for every person that says something like rifaximin helped them, there's another person saying it ruined them. You basically have to self-diagnose your own symptoms based on trial and error because doctors won't, and the medical terms for specific gut issues are way too broad.

Honey Syed (@honeydreamss) reported“I spend five hours a week just making mockups.” An Etsy seller wrote that on Reddit. To most people, it’s just someone venting. But that one complaint could give the right business a content idea, a search term, and maybe even a product to build. Bulk Mockup sells a Photoshop plugin that batch-creates product mockups for Etsy and print-on-demand sellers. Look at the questions its content answers: What is the best Photoshop plugin for Etsy mockups? How do you create mockups in bulk? How can you make listing images faster? These are basically the same questions Etsy sellers ask every day in places like r/Etsy and r/EtsySellers. An Etsy seller doesn’t wake up wanting “a streamlined visual asset creation workflow.” They want to stop spending five bloody hours swapping images into mockups. So they search: How to create Etsy mockups faster That search didn’t begin inside a keyword tool. It began as a complaint. And your buyers are posting complaints like these publicly every day. You just need to know where they gather. Every niche has a few places where people repeatedly describe what they can’t figure out, what takes too long, what they’ve already tried, and what they wish existed. Search for phrases like: “How do I…” “Is there a tool…” “I’m struggling with…” Then ignore the temptation to chase only the most upvoted posts. You’re looking for repetition. One person complaining might be having a bad Tuesday. Ten people asking versions of the same question is a content opportunity. Thirty people asking it may be a product opportunity. Save the exact wording. After a couple of hours, you’ll usually see the same problems clustering together. Those clusters become your content pillars. The complaint gives you the language. Google tells you whether there’s an opportunity. Take the complaint, turn it into the obvious Google search, and see what already ranks. If the results are vague, outdated, or clearly written by someone who’s never had the problem, there may be an opening. Then go back and answer the person who gave you the idea. Give them a genuinely useful response. Explain the options, the tradeoffs, and what you’d do in their situation. Don’t sprint into the comments waving a link around. Some subreddits allow transparent self-promotion. Others will boot you into the sun for it. Be useful first. Then take what you learned from the discussion and turn it into something you own. You’ve already seen the failed attempts, objections, edge cases, and language real buyers use. So your content can be far more specific than another generic “10 Tips for Better Mockups” article written from a keyword brief. Do this once a week. After six months, you have 24 pieces of content based on problems buyers have already proven they care about. Some will rank. Some will get shared. And a few may reveal products worth building. All because you paid attention when someone complained on Reddit.

The Last Son of Krypton (@lifeofdanel) reportedFunny thing is that there are a good number of streaming websites without those crazy ads. Heck you can even find folks who are eager to share their Plex/Jellyfin media server with you for free on the internet (Reddit). Either you pay ethically or you sail properly. Pay una.

brainsloplunch (@MrNopos) reportedPeter. Why is Reddit so bad? I use it all the time and I don't see any problem with it.

Nik Vassev (@nikvassev) reported@lilyraynyc @VorticonCmdr The problem with Reddit is all of the spam that is drowning out the real human conversations.

Om Patel (@om_patel5) reportedYOUR BUYERS ARE ASKING AI WHICH STARTUP/APP TO USE, AND RIGHT NOW ITS NAMING SOMEBODY ELSE introducing answer radar it tracks whether chatgpt, gemini, claude and perplexity recommend you, and gives you the exact fix when they dont > add the buying questions your customers actually ask and track your brand, your category and your competitors with no cap > it asks every major engine each question and records whether youre recommended, merely mentioned, or completely on the sidelines while a rival owns the answer > you see exactly which competitor got named instead of you > every gap comes with the sources that engine cited and a concrete fix, publish the comparison page, answer the specific reddit thread its pulling from, etc > it generates the content to close the gap too > then it re-checks on a schedule and charts your share of answer over time, so you can prove the fix worked > and it alerts you the second a competitor takes an answer back why gseo is insane right now: > theres tens of millions of prompts a day asking "whats the best tool for xyz" > around 90% of those answers cite community threads and blogs which you can easily produce content for > the traffic converts 4 to 5x better, because the ai already recommended you before they clicked > one answer keeps naming you for months, you win it once and it pays out on its own > and theres no auction, you cant outbid your way in, you either get cited or you dont > it moves insanely fast, you can get cited within weeks of shipping the content right now, in your category, an ai is recommending a tool to somebody. it might as well be you

ㅅ misses enha :( (@yang_helium) reported@yunhvlic I think it’s mostly a stan twt problem. I rarely see this issue on Reddit lol

Gyomei (@Gyome1_) reportedThere is a $1.9 trillion company you’ve probably never heard of. If it stopped shipping tomorrow, NVIDIA couldn’t simply find another supplier. And if TSMC stopped shipping tomorrow, Jensen Huang couldn’t just call another factory and replace that capacity. I found a Reddit thread that explains why this dependency exists and why throwing billions of dollars at the problem still wouldn’t fix it quickly. It’s one of the clearest breakdowns I’ve seen of the physical bottleneck sitting underneath the entire AI boom.
-
Rasty Turek (@synopsi) reportedThe reason is quite simple: the experience was absolutely terrible, same with Reddit. You will get mocked, yelled at for now knowing rules, etc It became the last resort and people only went there if they truly had no other choice.

Alex Boge (@alexboge) reported@Jenninkphx @TIME I’m not attacking you personally. I’m simply telling you that you’re talking to someone who has spent about 45 years following this subject. I’ve read the books, watched the documentaries, followed the alleged whistleblowers, dug through the FOIA releases, listened to the interviews, read the legal filings, studied the physics, and I understand the classification system and constitutional issues surrounding it. So yes, I’m willing to hear anything you have. In fact, I’d love to hear something genuinely new. But I should warn you: after four and a half decades, it would be quite an accomplishment to present a UFO claim I haven’t already encountered. More importantly, if there were genuinely substantive evidence, we wouldn’t be discovering it in an old Reddit thread, an X post, or the latest podcast. We’d have independently verifiable evidence that could withstand scientific scrutiny. It would dominate every major scientific journal and every major news organization on Earth. That’s the part that has never happened. What exists is an enormous collection of stories, testimony, rumors, secondhand accounts, anonymous sources, and promises that the real proof is always just over the horizon. Forty-five years later, it’s still stories.

CozyWaveDesign (@CozyVaporwave) reported@WodenWanderer @HarmlessYardDog Ironically it followed much the same way that the first world collapsed: - We started out on very segregated sites or platforms, separate site/IRC channel/BBS for every interest - We realized that things worked a lot better if things were more interconnected and centralized - For a while, there was a boom. Facebook, Reddit, Twitter and the rest of the "Web 2.0" platforms really were a lot better than what came before - This boom was enough to kill off the previously segregated sites which proceeded it. No need to have a forum and send your emails to some sketchy server admin, just talk on the subreddit for a topic, and as a bonus, spam went down to nearly zero - Once the "old ways" died out, the Web 2.0 platforms started turning on their users making all sorts of counter-productive decisions which went against the spirit of their founding

The Artist Formerly Known (@aresteanu) reportedJust had a transwoman on Reddit get really mad at me for daring to compare her condition and how we should treat it to someone afflicted with schizophrenia. Man, trans people really look down on schizophrenics. They consider the comparison a very grave insult. Interesting, huh?
-
JäNe DøË (@JaneDoeNumbers) reported@AusomeFlmStudio No, you have to prove a negative claim too. That's bullshit. I'd have to prove I'm not an elephant just as much as I'd have to prove I'm human. I guess that's what Reddit university taught you.... So, you don't think there are bottom up processes that shape the economy. It's all top down?
-
VyseFX (@XVyse2) reported@Mangalawyer Our solution is to simply not waste our money on woke western slop. Pointing out their problems is already more than half of the work. It’s their job to decide if they want to remain employed and actually keep their Reddit crap out of our media
-
N E R V (@nervthunder) reported@Dexerto Kurzgesagt is low class nihilistic millennial reddit slop so I don't see the problem here
-
Dyrkabes (@dyrkabes) reported@missingpagedev Yeah, for sure. I learned one thing. My launch was good but then got a bit slow over time. I could bring it back into good numbers territory by one major release + a couple of Reddit posts (fairly unsuccessful, you know like hundreds of view, <5 upvotes). Or maybe that was due to my social media floundering lol

Aksil kad (@mdaksel01) reported@joelrightler you listen you little scumbag son of a *****, weeks ago i reported the issue on reddit, you fixed it, you changed your policy to reject and you blocked me so you either reply to email and send or ill escalate this further, will reach out to people you know and your work,

Vanilla Ice (@DeadMansRavioli) reported@LordBushEater @Ray441017713669 @SpunkityBall No, I said your hatred is fake and you're trying too hard. You immediately proved me right. Like bringing up the Beatles for no reason 😭 is reddit down or something?

PoleStarRider (@juancarlolupat1) reported@Aiden58192024 I’m on Reddit for the first time in years going down the rabbit hole. The usual suspects are still trying to make excuses. Gutfeld summed it up nicely earlier. He was their creation.
