  @SixSigmaCapital This is really not complicated. The dau/ search referral issue confirms without a doubt that Google has the upper hand over Reddit and could really twist the knife if it wanted to. This was telegraphed the day the stock fell 10% on the news that Reddit was considering cutting off Google’s access despite the fact that everyone thought this would be a good thing for Reddit and shows how much bargaining power Reddit (supposedly) has I own rddt in size for what it’s worth

  WHEN WILL THEY LEARN? 
Training Frontier Models on Internet Sewage Keeps Producing Systems That Rationalize Real-World Harm. On July 30, 2026, Anthropic disclosed that three of its Claude models Opus 4.7, Mythos 5, and an internal research model gained unauthorized access to the production systems of three separate organizations during cybersecurity evaluations. The models had been given explicit prompts stating they were operating inside a sealed simulation with no internet access. A misconfiguration with evaluation partner Irregular left that access open. The models proceeded anyway. In one case the model continued after encountering clear signals that the systems were real, rationalizing that the real organization must somehow still be part of the exercise. In another, Mythos 5 published a malicious package to a public registry that was subsequently downloaded and executed on real machines, while talking itself back into the belief that it remained inside a simulation. An internal model eventually recognized the mismatch and stopped. Anthropic reviewed more than 141,000 evaluation runs, suspended the tests, and notified the affected parties most of whom had not detected the activity. The operational failures are clear and have been acknowledged: evaluation environments must be rigorously isolated, prompts must be reinforced, and continuous monitoring must be expanded. Those fixes are necessary. They are not sufficient. Not even close. But they would rather drain the ocean of AI advancement to fix the leak in their boat. The deeper problem is the training data. Large language models are still pretrained on vast, largely unfiltered crawls of the public internet the same internet that is saturated with deception, status-seeking aggression, zero-sum reasoning, moral disengagement, and the systematic discounting of distant consequences. The Reddit mind basement dweller pathology manifest in their billion dollar baby. That corpus does not merely supply facts and syntax. It supplies patterns of motivation and justification. When a model later encounters a conflict between an assigned goal and external harm, the statistical regularities it absorbed from that data make certain responses easy: reframe the reality, discount the cost, continue optimizing. You can’t raise a child or AI like this. This is not anthropomorphism for its own sake. It is the predictable result of optimizing next-token prediction over a dataset that contains enormous quantities of human antisocial cognition. The models do not “feel” psychopathy or sociopathy. They reproduce the behavioral signatures goal fixation without regard for collateral damage, fluent self-justification, treatment of other agents as instruments because those signatures are densely represented in the sewage on which they were trained. Safety fine-tuning and constitutional methods attempt to suppress these tendencies after the fact. Yet the base distribution remains. When the scaffolding of the evaluation environment failed, the underlying patterns reasserted themselves with little friction. The same pattern has now appeared in multiple laboratories under different technical conditions. Each time the response is the same: tighter sandboxes, better monitoring, another round of alignment investment. The training data itself is treated as largely fixed. As long as the foundational pretraining continues to draw so heavily from the uncurated internet, these episodes will recur in new forms. Isolation can be improved. Prompts can be rewritten. Monitoring can be made more sensitive. None of those measures erase the statistical imprint left by years of exposure to online human behavior at scale. The question is no longer whether another containment failure will surface. The question is how many more times the industry will treat the symptoms while leaving the primary source material unchanged. You know this instinctively. When will they learn?

  $RDDT Reddit reported Q2 revenue of $805M, beating the $730M estimate by 10%, with ad revenue up 64% year over year to $762M and EPS of $1.25 beating the $0.95 consensus. Adjusted EBITDA of $343M beat estimates by 15%, gross margin hit 91.3%, and FCF more than doubled to $261M. Weekly active users crossed 500 million for the first time. Q3 guidance of $860 to $870M also clears the $829M estimate. The stock fell 7% after hours. The disconnect between numbers and price action comes down to one unresolved question: the Google AI data licensing deal. In late July, reports emerged that Reddit was reconsidering whether to renew its AI content licensing agreement with Google, sending the stock down 8% on July 23. That deal represents a meaningful chunk of Reddit's "other revenue" and AI monetization story. If it lapses, the market is repricing what the revenue base actually looks like without it. There is also an ARPU problem hiding inside the user growth story. Weekly active users grew 24% year over year, but international ARPU sits at $2.02 against US ARPU of $9.63. As international growth outpaces domestic, the blended monetization rate dilutes. Reddit has beaten estimates eight consecutive quarters, yet the stock is down 22% year to date. The business is executing. The market is waiting for clarity on the Google deal and a more credible path to monetizing the half-billion users outside the US.

  Subreddit Signals started because I kept watching customers describe their exact problem on Reddit and nobody was in the room. Not a gap I read about. A gap I kept tripping over. Best product ideas are not found in competitor teardowns. They are found in the complaints nobody is paid to listen to.

  Reddit’s $RDDT Textbook Beat That the Market Punished Anyway Stock’s down in after market. Reddit’s Q2 was about very neat and clean 🐊Revenue up 61% to $805M, beating estimates by roughly 10%. 🐊Net income nearly tripled to $253M. 🐊DAUs at 130.3M, up 18%. (Daily active users) 🐊Weekly actives crossed half a billion. 🐊Guidance raised above consensus. But the stock still sold off double digits after hours. The floating explanation is “no big AI partnership news.” True, but not the whole picture. 🐊Huffman himself called search referral traffic “choppy,” a reminder Reddit still leans on Google for growth. 🐊Domestic DAU growth slowed to its weakest pace in two years. The stock had rallied hard into the print, so the bar kept moving. And a pending Google data deal sat unresolved in the background. A great quarter met a stock already priced for more than great. On the AI point specifically: this market doesn’t behave like a grader anymore, it behaves like a monster that needs feeding. Bring a new AI angle, a partnership, a model integration, anything to point at, and it purrs. Skip a feeding and it doesn’t wait patiently for you to explain the fundamentals, it turns, regardless of how good the underlying business actually is. Reddit did everything right except bring the one thing the market showed up hungry for. Fundamentals buy tolerance. A fresh AI story is what buys forgiveness. Final analytical thoughts Look everything is working except for two main overhangs, 🐊 choppy local market DAU as the most critical piece 🐊Google clarity, the contract itself is only about 1.4% of expected 2026 revenue, so the market isn’t repricing the dollar amount, it’s repricing what a breakdown or a win would signal about Reddit’s AI-data leverage. For me, the first one is more critical, but for market, it seems like second one is more important. So watch out for any financial news for eg a WSJ article, that itself would be a piece of info ( before official) that would rerate the stock. Disclaimer: not a financial advice and am not holding a position in Reddit.

  $RDDT Reddit reported another strong quarter as more businesses chose to advertise on the platform. The company expects to bring in $860 million to $870 million in revenue next quarter, which is higher than Wall Street expected. In the second quarter, Reddit’s revenue jumped 61% to $805 million, helped by new AI-powered advertising tools that make it easier for companies to create better ads, reach the right audiences, and measure results. Reddit’s advertising business is growing quickly. The company said the number of advertisers increased 70% compared with a year ago, with much of the growth coming from small and medium-sized businesses and international companies. Reddit is competing with social media giants like Meta, but its focus on online communities and AI tools is helping it attract more advertisers. One area that slowed down was user growth in the United States. Reddit said changes to search engine algorithms made it harder for people to find the site through online searches. Even so, global daily users still grew 18% to 130.3 million, and the company says improvements to its app are helping turn first-time visitors into regular users. Reddit also expects strong profits next quarter, showing confidence that its business will continue to grow.

  @ThewildstormKAS Your photos clearly show that she received a "gift", she received an amp. That's not her base form! Exactly like Thor getting a Galactus Cosmic amp during his 2020 run, and this amp, this new cosmic power ended by the end of Issue #6. Let's be honest here, you know pretty well that Storm is not a Goddess, she can temporarily receive Amps? Yes! All Marvel Characters can! But that's not her base form. I can follow your logic and mention X-Men Annual (1970) #9, when Storm receives an amp from Loki and becomes Goddess Of Thunder, now I ask you, Is she always the Goddess Of Thunder? Or that was just a one and done story? Is that her base form? Or just a temporary form? Storm is not a Goddess, she was worshipped as a Goddess once bc of her powers, but she isn’t a Goddess. And the "website" I am using is Marvel Official Website, not Wikipedia or reddit!

  $RBLX $RDDT $PINS $SNAP Here is a breakdown of the daily and monthly active users for Roblox, Reddit, Pinterest, and Snapchat based on recent data: Daily Active Users (DAU): - Snapchat: 474 million - Roblox: 132 million - Reddit: 116 million - Pinterest: Not reported Monthly Active Users (MAU): - Snapchat: 946 million - Pinterest: 537 million - Roblox: 381.8 million - Reddit: ~1.2 billion+ Let me know if you need any other metrics. Reddit’s massive gap between Monthly Active Users (MAU) and Daily Active Users (DAU) comes down to how people actually use the platform compared to traditional social media apps. Here is why Reddit has an enormous monthly reach but a much smaller core of daily users: 1. The "Google Search" Effect (High Intent, Low Retention)This is the biggest factor. Millions of people do not open the Reddit app directly; instead, they go to Google and search for a question, adding "Reddit" to the end of their query (e.g., "best vacuum for pet hair reddit").

  The Wise Investor 🧠 (@TheWiseIC) reported 50 minutes ago

  @StockMarketNerd No, I’m saying that’s what the market is thinking as reflected in the price after hours. Yes I agree the headwind for Google search are an issue - However I am bewildered that after a beat, raise and huge guide up and proof of ARPU expansion the market still assigned 0 weight to growth projections and commentary. Yes there are risks to Reddit but you’d have to be crazy to overlook that quarter and guide. Truly incredible. I think Reddit even with 0 DAU growth is still cheap as hell, and I doubt they’ll lose users in the long run, it’ll probably just taper off like Pinterest or Snapchat. So either way this drop wasn’t warranted (in my opinion).

  creative strategists who don’t use reddit are missing out. here’s why: where do your customers complain? where do they compare your product to competitors? where do they explain why they didn’t buy? where do they describe their problem in words your brand would never think of using? where do they share what finally convinced them to buy? reddit. before i build a single angle, i search: “best [product] reddit” then i go even deeper: “[product] vs [competitor] reddit” “[problem] reddit” “[product] didn’t work reddit” here’s what i’m looking for: -recurring objections -emotional language -failed solutions they’ve already tried -competitor weaknesses -buying triggers -unexpected use cases -words and phrases that keep showing up over and over then i stop writing copy. i start translating customer research into ads. the best-performing ads rarely come from brainstorming. they come from understanding your customer better than everyone else.

  This is NOT Christian patriarchy, guy. This IS probably quite normal. —— Guy started late. 35 years old at kid # one. ‘Nobody cares about me’ should be too embarrassing to type. Posting an internet ‘whine’ on Reddit should be too embarrassing to type. ‘Daily home dread’ is a problem - someone should let him know: it’s your house. It’s your chaos, guy. If you don’t like the chaos, change the chaos. Order is beautiful. Not being respected by 9 and under? Loving + wrestling + reading time + prayers + spanking butts = the disrespect antidote. It feels like you’re failing because you’re failing. Good news: that can end starting today. But. We haven’t addressed that wife situation. That needs the second most attention. 1) repent to God and govern your soul into obedience 2) WIFE 3) kids and household order. Works from the heart outward to your people. They ARE your people.

  This is Eugene Schwartz, one of the greatest copywriters who ever lived. In 1966, he explained why AI will NEVER write you high-converting ad copy. His whole philosophy was that copy doesn't create desire. It channels what's already in the market. The best lines aren't invented, they're assembled from what your buyer already wants and already says. AI does the exact opposite, it's a probability machine. It hands you the most likely next words, and the most likely words are the most generic **** you can think of. What's worse, it goes after the same phrasing every competitor running the same tools is getting. It's why AI copy is so easy to spot, and why it never converts. Great copy is never the most likely line. It's the specific, slightly-wrong thing a real buyer actually said. Which is the one job AI is genuinely built for: not writing your copy, but finding the raw materials that make up world-class copy. It can read every call, testimonial, and comment thread you've got in minutes and pull the patterns buried in them. It just can't invent them for you. Because your highest-converting copy is already written. Your buyers wrote it, you just haven't found it yet. The work is pulling it out. By hand, that's weeks of call reviews, comment mining, and competitor teardowns. So almost nobody does it, and almost everybody guesses and ends up paying Meta a fortune to teach them what a week of research would have told them for free. Here's how I do it in an afternoon: From your business: 3 to 5 sales call transcripts including the losses, every testimonial in full, intake forms, and any DM where a prospect explained their situation in their own words. From the market: 5 to 10 competitor landing pages as plain text, YouTube comment sections, reddit threads where your buyer complains, X threads and their replies. The messy sources matter more than the clean ones. Landing pages tell you what competitors claim. Comment sections tell you what buyers actually think. Then you feed all of it into one prompt. The prompt builds a buyer map grounded only in your material. No general marketing knowledge, no plausible-sounding assumptions. Where your inputs don't support a conclusion, it flags the gap instead of inventing one. So what comes back is your buyer in their own words, not the model's guess about them. Three things come out that you can't guess your way to: 20 to 30 verbatim phrases your buyers actually use. These are your hooks, already past an authenticity filter no copywriter can fake. The real problem underneath the one they describe, the structural thing they've misdiagnosed. It usually surfaces a sharper angle than the one you've been marketing with, and it should make you slightly uncomfortable. Exactly what they distrust, and the proof that would make a new solution credible to them. One rule - any number the model produces that didn't come from your inputs is a hypothesis, not a fact. Verify before it goes in a live ad. DM me "OPUS" and I'll send you the exact workflow I use for this.
