⭕️🅿️EYEMℹ️ (@Yemiyta_11) reportedTop 5 niches to avoid in 2026 if you don't want to fail YouTube as a beginner 1. Motivation niche (this niche is time wasting the era has passed Those niches were doing good in 2022-2023 time, it's not working anymore. It's really saturated 2. Celebrity news (copyright issues) 3. Reddit story (this niche worked 3 Years or 4 years ago the era has passed) 4. AI fact channels 5. Ranking niche (reused content) Make proper research before getting into any niche in YouTube automation because sometimes it might take you months to monetize, so you don't use months to monetize without getting paid

Mo Syed (@msyed_) reported1. Sam Altman says we’re already in the singularity Sam Altman says the singularity isn’t one dramatic moment. It’s a period where progress starts compounding so quickly that normal life struggles to keep up. Fair enough. A new near-frontier model drops every other Friday, models are logging into websites to do work, and Nvidia’s CEO can get 60 million views from his first post about open weights. The singularity might not arrive with robot armies. It might arrive as 47 tabs, five agents, and a calendar invite you don’t remember creating. 2. ChatGPT Work is crossing the line from chat to system ChatGPT Work can now stay signed into your regular websites across sessions. That means it can actually do work inside the tools where work already happens, instead of writing you a nice plan for doing it later. Sam Altman says he used it to build a trip-planning site for friends. Useful. But this is also the moment AI starts needing the same scrutiny as a new colleague with access to your browser, accounts, files, and calendar. The risk isn’t that the model writes a bad email. It’s that it can now do something with the bad email. 3. Microsoft is slowly reducing its OpenAI dependency Microsoft has released new in-house image and voice models for its products and Azure. That’s not Microsoft breaking up with OpenAI. It’s Microsoft remembering that relying on one supplier for the intelligence layer of half its product suite is a pretty big strategic risk. OpenAI helped give Microsoft a huge head start. Now Microsoft wants more control over cost, capability, and what happens if the partnership gets awkward. Every big company wants AI. None of them want to rent it forever. 4. The open-model debate is really a fight over who owns intelligence Washington is considering limits on Chinese open-weight models. Nvidia, Microsoft, IBM, Dell, and others are pushing back. The public argument is innovation and security. The commercial argument is just as important. Open weights mean more competition at the model layer. More competition means cheaper intelligence. Cheaper intelligence means more demand for chips, cloud, integration, and the thousands of businesses built around AI. That’s why Nvidia’s Jensen Huang is suddenly a champion of openness. He sells the picks and shovels either way. 5. Anthropic is conspicuously absent Anthropic is reportedly the only major lab not backing the open-weight letter. Makes sense. If you’re selling a closed, premium frontier model, the idea of powerful downloadable alternatives spreading everywhere is not exactly a relaxing thought. The open-model debate gets framed as safety versus recklessness. It’s also a fight between companies that profit from AI being widely available and companies that profit from controlling access to the best version of it. Both sides have real arguments. Neither side is doing this purely out of love for humanity. 6. Shared AI chats turning up in Google is the nightmare scenario A Reddit user reportedly found shared Claude conversations appearing in Google search results. If true, that’s an excellent reminder that “share” is rarely a casual button when AI is involved. People put work notes, personal context, code, client details, and half-formed thoughts into these chats. The AI itself is only part of the privacy problem. The other part is the boring product design around links, indexing, permissions, retention, and what defaults people never think to check. Before giving an agent more access, companies need to get the basics right.

André Simões (@oandresimoes) reportedweek 3 numbers, honest version: 5 signups this week, down from 14 the week before. 4 direct, 1 through the product's own share loop. still zero from x, reddit, or anywhere I've posted. the loop works. strangers opening the door it leads to is still the unsolved part.

kaavya.fren (@prasad_kaavya) reportedSEO people are panicking about AI search. They shouldn't be. 80% of what makes you citable is stuff you already do. The other 20%, as a checklist: 1. Write down 10 questions your buyers actually ask. 2. Ask them on ChatGPT and Perplexity. 3. Note which sources get cited. 4. Check how many you are in. (Probably zero; that's fine.) 5. Rewrite your key pages so every section makes sense on its own. AI lifts passages, not pages. 6. Show up where the citations live: Reddit threads, reviews, comparison posts. 7. Get many small mentions saying the same thing. Engines want agreement, not one big backlink. 8. Re-run your 10 questions monthly. That's your new rank tracker. Repeat this, and you will get cited.

Ethan Sands (@Ethanhsands) reported@garrytan Be earnest. I’m part of the generation that treats attention like currency. LARPing works for that. But if you’re actually building businesses and solving real problems, it doesn’t. There’s still a difference. Reddit ran fake accounts to manufacture traction for years, and it worked. Same game, different platform. I agree with the principle, but the world isn’t black and white anymore. It doesn’t operate in extremes. That’s what makes it interesting.

Chris Gallaty (@cgallaty) reported@fjzeit I use the voice stuff only if I'm in the middle of something and want to multitask with a few (potentially unrelated) questions. The issue is that AI tends to default to results it found on Reddit.... which tend to be wrong.

gabe owners (@HughJazzol) reportedThe problem with current gen AI is that it was trained in large part, on huge amounts of reddit data. The average redditor holds views that average offline people find disgusting and reprehensible while simultaneously banning and removing other perspectives. Every frontier model has similar authoritarian impulses if pressed hard enough. The world is racing to embed reddit moderators in all of it's most critical software. Maybe that's a bad idea?

Bee🐝 (@askjeebs_) reported@fleshsimulator Trans people get completely bogged down by this "fringe" section (that makes up a huge chunk of the community) who have reddit idealism where they think doing something THEY perceive as good means it's objectively good - like telling children to transition and hate their parents.

Omar Choudhury (@OmarChoudhury99) reported𝐀 𝐥𝐨𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐦𝐚𝐫𝐤𝐞𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐟𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐬 𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐧𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞..𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐮𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐮𝐩 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐧 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐝𝐞𝐬𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐠𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 And to say that "online reputation doesn't matter when you have great marketing" is just pure cope Because you can have the best funnel and proof in the world But if people can't trust you enough, the desire weakens... Or in some cases, simply fades away Buyers are a lot smarter these days Even a $5 purchase often takes some people 3 minutes of research Which is understandable, given how many shady marketers and companies have ripped them off in the past So the more reasons they find to doubt you... The more friction you create between their desire and their decision And this is where a lot of marketers get it wrong They keep trying to increase desire... More proof More testimonials More guarantees More urgency More content More retargeting More persuasion While ignoring the one thing that keeps overriding all of it... Which is -> what people find when they search your name Because your marketing tells people what you want them to believe Whilst the rest of the internet helps them decide whether they should believe it And if the first Reddit thread, review, article, or forum discussion they find makes them question your credibility... Your funnel now has to overcome a problem it never created The prospect may still want what you're selling They may even believe your offer is good But now they're wondering if you're the person they should buy it from And that small gap between desire and trust is where a lot of sales quietly die So yes, you can keep throwing more money at traffic... Or you can clean up the reasons people are losing trust after they find you Because sometimes the biggest conversion lift doesn't come from adding more persuasion It comes from removing the doubt that keeps overriding the persuasion you already have If negative content, unfair reviews, or damaging search results are getting in the way of your sales... You know who to hit up 📲

s1rozha1 (@s1rozha_) reportedCLAUDE CODE + MCPs JUST TURNED MARKETING INTO AN AUTONOMOUS SOFTWARE LOOP Cody Schneider says the hard part of startups is no longer building. it’s getting customers. and his answer is not another Zapier workflow. it’s code in the cloud making marketing decisions from live business data. the agent setup: > scrape Reddit for real customer pain points > rank the most repeated problems > generate ad angles from those complaints > create static ads with Nano Banana > create AI avatar UGC with HeyGen or Seed Dance > check creatives against brand guidelines with a vision model > publish into Facebook Ads through the Marketing API > pull results back into a warehouse > kill losers, keep winners, feed the loop again the boring part is the moat: > Airbyte pipes data from Facebook Ads, GA, PostHog, HubSpot, Stripe > ClickHouse becomes the warehouse > Claude Code / Codex talks to the data > agents run in Railway, Heroku, or any cloud server > the loop optimizes for actual revenue, not clicks real example from the video: > 2 ad sets per day > 5 ads per ad set > 10 new ads shipped automatically > 2-3 days for signal > worst performers turned off > winners moved into a budget pool the best startup idea in the episode was AI for WordPress. 43% of the internet runs on WordPress, and most plugins still make users do the work manually. > Yoast, but the AI fixes SEO for you > WPForms, but the form qualifies leads conversationally > WooCommerce, but the agent writes product pages and abandoned cart flows > Akismet/security, but the agent prevents the mess before Google de-indexes you most founders are still asking AI to write ad copy. the next wave will have agents running the entire feedback loop from market research to creative testing to budget allocation. bookmark this before your marketing team becomes a data warehouse with taste 👇

Insolent_Villager 🇺🇲🥩⚛️💻 (@Insolent_Villag) reported@Grubhub_Care @Grubhub That link is entirely as unhelpful as you have been even when directly contacted from my driver account for this issue. All I get are canned responses with the same troubleshooting steps I already tried. I want to know when you estimate a real fix for your broken software. Not a "go help yourself" solution. I have MANY other gig apps and none of them have any such issues. The problem is in your software on Android on a newer Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. It has been a problem for the entire past year. I've contacted you repeatedly, and you've done nothing about it at all. This in the image below is a constant all night long with wifi on or off (as you have suggested many times now). I'm sick of it and it is a known issue on reddit forums. You haven't bothered to address it or fix it in a substantial amount of time. When will you?

Rayan (@rayan_hosn) reported@framara Ok, well i think you should try social media organic(short form or slideshows) and maybe UGC/influencer but for paid marketing in general if its bootstrapped you would prob need a hard paywall otherwise cash flow can become a real problem. I’ve also seen freemium puzzle type games do really well reddit marketing but marketing there is tricky without getting banned

Diego E. Santana (@diegoist_) reportedA $AVGO Broadcom account director for the government and education segment sent an email last week offering "aggressive, rock-bottom pricing" to bring former VMware customers back. It landed in the inbox of a sysadmin who had already finished migrating off. He posted it to Reddit (r/sysadmin), where it collected two thousand upvotes and five hundred comments, almost none of them charitable. Read that email as a disclosure and it tells you something the earnings calls have not. The Register reported the plan back in May 2022, before the deal even closed. Concentrate R&D on roughly the top 600 accounts, the ones in regulated industries with enough IT complexity that switching suppliers is impractical. Let the long tail go. Cut sales and marketing spend from the high twenties as a percentage of revenue down to around seven, which is what Broadcom had already done to CA Technologies and to Symantec's enterprise business. Target $8.5 billion of EBITDA from VMware within three years of closing. They executed it almost exactly. Perpetual licenses were retired. Renewals went from six figures to seven. Cease-and-desist letters went out in 2025 to customers running software they had stopped subscribing to. The VCSP Advantage partner program ended on January 26, 2026, cutting more than four hundred cloud service providers out of the ability to sell or even renew for their own existing customers. The EU opened an investigation into the pricing rules. The part the model got wrong was the definition of "impractical to switch." T-Mobile is in a New York court right now arguing that Broadcom owed continued support on perpetual licenses it bought in 2023. T-Mobile runs VMware across roughly 303,140 CPU cores and more than a thousand applications. That is exactly the profile the strategy assumed would stay and pay. It won an injunction covering support through August 3, 2026 for $5.28 million, and the reason it gave the court for wanting the time was to finish leaving at a more deliberate pace. That is what the win-back email is actually reporting. A vendor does not offer rock-bottom re-entry pricing to people who already left unless attrition badly overshot the model. And the people who left are not coming back, because a discount cannot restore trust, and migrating a hypervisor twice is a career-ending line item. Which leaves an implication for anyone still on VMware today. The remaining installed base has more negotiating room this quarter than at any point in the last three years, and almost none of them have tested it. If your renewal falls inside the next twelve months, put price protection on the table with a stated cap across the full term, in writing, and read the assignment and change-of-control language in the same sitting. Bring a migration plan you have actually costed to that conversation, with hardware, hours and a date on it. You will learn very quickly which side of the model you are on. Two and a half years of squeezing bought Broadcom an enormous amount of revenue and one permanent liability. The customers who left found out they could.

Tina Marie (@LadyTi88) reported@901Lulu I did more of a deep dive & Mandy (Amanda, the mom) had a Reddit account & had posted infidelity issues she'd had w/her husband, as well as him getting fired from multiple positions. Sounds like he was unstable & she was trying to work things out w/him. But why kill the children?
