VantoraTrade (@VantoraTrade) reportedChad FOMO'd into "MoonShot AI" at the absolute top because "everyone on Reddit is buying." It instantly dumped 60%. He held, telling himself "this is just a dip, I'm not emotional." It dumped another 40%. Chad doubled down, whispering "the market is wrong." Now he's bagholding at -94%, doomscrolling cope threads at 2 AM. Moral: Your brain lies when money's on the line.

Diana Alastair💚🤍💜 ⚢ ❌❌✡️ (@sappholives83) reportedSo I want to try an experiment, and make a female-only community on Reddit. They allow trans-only subreddits, and the porn subreddits can insist on only-female content, so as long as we make it clear that females who identify as trans are allowed, they shouldn’t be able to ban us, as long as we’re not posting transphobic content. I know that will limit discussion, but there are so many other issues facing women that I’m sure we’ll be able to find something to talk about. I don’t want to set it all up for no reason, though, so let me start by asking — would anyone even join?

Sandro (@IAmSandroSaric) reportedUltra phrase of the week from Reddit: HAHAHAH I can build your app by myself in few hours if I want to, hihihihihihi ok, anyone can cook pasta at home, yet millions of people pay restaurants to do it for them every night. anyone can set up their own email server yet everyone pays Google or Microsoft. anyone can build their own apps, yet almost everyone uses existing tools and pays for them. the 1% of developers who will reverse engineer your app, swap out the license check, configure their own prompts, and maintain it themselves forever, let them, who cares they would never be customers, anyways. they would rather spend 20 hours rebuilding your tool than spend $29. that's their choice and it's a bad trade, because serious dev per hour is usually more than $29 but you can't stop them and you shouldn't try. the other 99% will think "this is cool it works, it saves me time, $29 is nothing"

Anson Ainsworth (@faq2main) reportedSomeone on Reddit right now is clearing $3K–$4K/month at 90% passive. The system isn't complicated. Find a remote job. Build the SOPs. Hire a VA for $400/mo. Pocket the difference. The hard part isn't the idea. It's the "build the SOPs" step. Most people skip it because it's work up front with no immediate payoff. That's exactly why it works for the people who do it. I've been sitting with this. 18 years teaching kids to swim. Every drill, every fear breakdown, every parent conversation — all of it is a system I carry in my head. Never written down. What if I documented it? Built the training program. Found instructors. Ran the backend while they taught? That's not passive income someday. That's a business. And the only thing stopping it is documentation. The difference between a job and a business is the SOP. Most people with real expertise never make that jump because they think their skill IS the product. It's not. The skill is the starting point. What expertise are you sitting on that you've never written down?

שרמוטל (@sharmutal) reported@reddit_lies Per the post he has many other problems that preclude development. Did he ask for CV review on LinkedIn or go straight to reddit to beach?
-
Raymond Ekpo (@raymonduekpo) reported@WorkWomp Reddit is actually the right call for this audience. The issue is most job search subs treat product posts as spam regardless of account age. The founders who crack it usually lead with the problem in the thread, not the product. Have you tried posting as the builder sharing what you’re learning, rather than promoting WorkWomp directly?

TwiYorLokeLeoLucy🧡💛∞♡∞☘︎ミ✭ ݁˖⋆✮˚.⋆.∞ (@cosmichumanlove) reported@maucariinfoaja It's why I hate Reddit. Hope it shut down like amino . I mean why can't fans enjoy their own dynamic without slander lol.

Chris York (@wizardofohmz) reportedJust letting people know that @Reddit banned me for essentially telling people NOT to post suggestive photos of underage girls…yep. Reached out and they neglected to lift my ban. Is this what they’re about? Terrible customer service. Long time user just tossed out like trash.
-
Diego Rey (@diegoarey) reported@fuelfive @Reddit This sounds like poetic resemblance after the fact. The overlap is that both science and mysticism start with conjecture. Mysticism stops there and protects the conjecture. Science critiques and correct errors, updating the conjecture. Lucky overlap ≠ vindication.

mskerri GME (@MsKerriishere) reported@ValueAddedRS @ryancohen I noticed while going through Reddit eBay complaints that this was a big issue. Also noticed complaints of wrong item and broken into packages where cards were removed etc with no help from customer service.
-
Vlada from HeyCatch (@vlada_heycatch) reportedStart with "conversations marketing". Find where your audience already complains about your problem: Reddit, Quora, FB groups, Discord. Talk to them. This audience is hot. They have the problem, named it, tried to solve it. Your first 50 users, real validation, product feedback.

Coyote Knight【妖怪VT】 (@coyote_knight) reported@helldivers2 Here's how to fix the community issues -disassociate from reddit altogether -nuke your discord server -implement an ingame feedback survey -fire your current community manager and hire a new one (optional step)

Jon White (@Jonny_Blanco) reported@MLBTheShow How about fix your game and stop censoring forums, Reddit etc of views and feedback that points to how bad this game is and how greedy SDS has become

MJ23 (@MJ23OSRS) reportedthe same people white knighting Rendi on reddit are now crying cause Jagex resolved the issue and that’s somehow streamer favoritism? ******* brain dead community.
-
Olami Lekan (@RealOlamius) reported@heyhyperai Your branding is honestly better than a lot of projects I see. The product is likely not the problem. The thing is, the right communities haven’t gotten there yet.” “Reddit is good for that because people trust recommendations more than traditional promotion.”

StrawberryXSaiyan (@Swbstrwbrry) reported@mufon do you think this is odd I’ve been trying to share it on Reddit because it keeps getting taken down I’d love to speak with somebody about an experience I had may 6th around 12:30 am. I feel something happened to me and have a string of videos and pictures of crafts m
-
Taiwo Oladosu (@TaiTechSolution) reported@xylo_business @tibo_maker Absolutely 👍 And honestly, that’s the reason I structure it as a test phase first Reddit can either become a very strong acquisition channel or a complete waste of time depending on execution. Most founders only see the “strict guidelines” side of it because they enter too aggressively or target the wrong conversations. Whenever you’re ready, we can break down Vynx specifically and map where the best entry points actually are for your type of product.

Anglo-Saxon (@AngloSaxon97256) reported@C0nspiracyLemur @Mike_from_PA This was always the problem with ethan klein lawsuits. What is everyone gonna sue eachother for reactions now if they dont like the criticism? Is everyone going to sue asmongold or his reddit for posting or talking about them?
-
Darwinex Zero (@DarwinexZero) reportedA question on r/Forex Reddit: do most traders actually know if their losses are from strategy or from behaviour. The honest answer: most can't tell. That's the real problem. Strategy loss is a clean signal. Your model said one thing, the market did another, you paid the variance cost at known frequency. Useful information, even if uncomfortable. Behaviour loss is what kills systematic traders. You overrode the entry, undersized the position, exited early, doubled after a winner, skipped a setup because the screen looked busy. The PnL prints the same red number. The cause is invisible. Most retail traders blow up optimising the wrong layer. They tune a strategy that wasn't broken. The real fix was upstream: the human in the loop, drifting from their own rules. The point isn't to remove the human. It's to measure the drift. What you can measure, you can manage.

MaxGaming170 | Changeling VTuber (@MSyrus97667) reported@ROXASxg @ChibiReviews Oh, that wasn't the devs. Even the devs (to my knowledge) called out that doxing shitshow. That was Reddit and the Glazedivers. The worst place on the internet by far, so up their own *** about how "right" they are that they can taste their own intestines. The problem is that they believe that Arrowhead can do no wrong, while simultaneously believing that any change that disrupts the "grunt fantasy" is worthy of causing a riot over. So it winds up being a truck sized powder keg of lithium and nitroglycerin that annihilates the whole block if anything pokes it the wrong way. Full on hypocrites.

Åsk Dabitch Wäppling (@dabitch) reported@abrah48466 Brigading between subreddits isn't allowed on Reddit, so they had to shut down the Swedish reddit until people calmed down.
-
iamfaheem (@theAIdreamer) reportedThe hardest part of building Buddyy isn't the tech. It's deciding what to ignore. I track thousands of conversations across X, Reddit, and forums every day. The signal-to-noise problem is real. 99% of what I find is people venting. 1% are people who actually want to buy. Training that filter is the whole job right now.

J. Respectful Clark (@JReubenCIark) reportedAlternatively, he just doesn't want to commit to marriage and the money is an excuse. Talking through the issue in a non-reddit way would help unearth this!

Joe Baer (@Joe_Baer_74) reported@WrestleTalk_TV Can’t wait to see the ESPN Reddit melt down over this
-
Renner War Room (@RennerWarRoom) reported@johncardillo Rich coming from a campaign whose advisor spends more time posting vulgar meltdowns online than explaining why their candidate keeps stepping on rakes. If your entire strategy is screaming “vile!” while acting like a drunk Reddit commenter, maybe the problem isn’t us. Projection is a powerful thing.
-
Filthy Pink Skins (@TIger598197) reported@TheSaltyKing47 you tried to cite ai aggregation of reddit posts to say paul tassi wasnt credible LOL I asked for articles or industry officials saying that. You had trouble understanding how budget estimations work. Even posted independent(of me) budget estimation. You dont know sourcing
