  here are some tips: 1. do not post links in your comments 2. if you add value first and only mention your product where it’s relevant (without the link), reddit is totally fine with it. 3. the only time you might run into issues is if your account is brand new with almost no karma, because new accounts get flagged more easily. build a bit of karma, comment normally, then start using it and you’ll be good. 4. if you comment on too many posts in a short window, you may get banned. this is why we only show a few relevant reddit posts per day, so people don’t comment on every post. 5. follow the rules. some subreddits allow self-promotion, some have weekly threads for promotions, and others don’t allow it at all 6. the better your system prompt, the better your replies 7. not every comment has to be about your product. help people and comment thoughtfully without mentioning your product

  @kristakdoyle The biggest problem is that reddit moderator created a situation that forced any business to try to use stealth tactics which made everything worse

  I've watched founders pour six figures into redesigns... Thinking a slicker hero section would fix pipeline. It won't. The decision was made in a Slack channel, a peer call, a podcast, a Reddit thread. You weren't in the room.

  Its long been observed that online forums, when moderation is fair, will naturally skew right. Reddit has numerous systems that promote the opposite. Twitter was well down that road as well, until Musk bought it and corrected its course.

  @buildwtim From my experience, Reddit was actually the first platform ever where I got my first clients basically. But it's really notorious in terms of self-promotion or even if it seems like that you are helping other people out with their problems by providing the solution that you have developed, they can ban you straight from the bat. But the first users came from Reddit and the second approach was actually using SEO and more specifically inbound SEO coming up with ideal primary and secondary keywords, making resource pages, article pages and recently I also made use case pages, using internal linking. And directory backlinks is also a good way to go.

  @lilbrudder2 @JeffGreason The thing that got me too was that they were keying off a single sentence in one interview. People put things in ways sometimes that might it be the best way to explain something. If the critiques were a pattern, you could say it was a problem, but there was none, Also, I don’t know about you, but in the 80’s we talked about things differently, and we held opinions based on the times we lived in. Trying to hold up things to today’s standard doesn’t fly. I didn’t ask people on Twitter or Reddit for their opinions on Gygax. I went and looked up YouTube videos and magazine articles with quotes and facts. My conclusion is that WoTC is wrong. But the damage is done. I know it’s just a game and I tend to take things too seriously sometimes, but WoTC tried to tear down the legacy of the creator of the game to make them look like they have the moral high ground.

  🤔there was an old line from a Snowden file where NSA boasted about how they always think in terms of "do the impossible" and that's how they stay far ahead of everyone else because nobody can even think about what they are doing. how could you take down the Starlink weapon system without triggering Kessler syndrome? i like this idea posted on Reddit because it is a big idea, it sounds technically impossible and it requires such a huge scale that is bigger than the thing it attacks. this follows a principle similar to "the Bitter Lesson", but for weapons instead of data/AI. How do you take down 20,000+ small satellites which are the size of a couch? Easy, sorta. you deploy 40,000 smaller satellites the size of a microwave, which have grabber arms, they grab the Starlinks, then fire their small boosters and force the Starlinks down towards the Earth. this avoids the catastrophe of explosions in space and filling all the orbital planes with microscopic debris moving 17,000mph, like a giant shredder that makes going into orbit become impossible. i bet Starlink doesn't even have a defense against this type of attack because this is such a ridiculous engineering problem that nobody would believe it might be possible. i bet it is possible. but the only way it would work is a non-US country will need to clone SpaceX's re-usable rockets to make it scale. China is already pretty close. so the Starlink head start door closes in about 2-5 years.

  19. Which finally brings us back to the latest (and soon-to-be-brief) Reddit craze. Hollywood doesn’t actually believe Reddit is a goldmine of great movie ideas. They’re not that stupid. But in the random chaos of development, it gives some junior exec something to point to. “Look, we found this viral thing!” Just enough cover to justify their job and push a project forward for a minute. For thirty-plus years since Jaws and Star Wars, the studios have chased every fad imaginable trying to solve their story problem: spec script wars, magazine articles (Miramax even launched one), self-published novels, Wattpad stories, the Black List, Twitter threads, true-crime podcasts, YouTube creepypastas, and now Reddit AMAs and lore. None of them stick. The pattern is always the same. Everyone rushes in thinking they’ve found the cheat code. Agents quickly game the system. Prices explode. Most projects still die in development. A couple get made… and usually flop. Then it’s back to square one, hunting for the next shiny development fad. I’m not trying to discourage anyone from jumping on the Reddit wave. Go for it. But that’s how it works. The only hopeful thing I can say to anyone trying to break into this broken system is this: since it’s mostly random anyway… just make the thing you actually want to make. It can’t possibly be any worse than everything else being tried.

  I recently discovered a new growth hack that SaaS startup founders use on X, Product Hunt, Hacker News and Reddit: 1. They set up Google Alerts, F5bot, ReplyGuy or BrandWatch for the competitors' products 2. Then, using these social listening tools, find discussions that mention their competitors 3. And leave comments that follow this framework: "Any reason why not using X instead of Y (competitor’s product)? Way better if you do not want to {problem agitation and/or unique selling proposition}" 4. People get curious and start googling the alternative 5. As a result, this improves SEO, gets them mentions, backlinks and customers

  Wtf is Ripple actually doing? It’s been a while since the XRP lawsuit was dropped, freeing Ripple from the chains it was binded. After the whole SEC drama cooled down, you’d think there’d be a ton of public news, big partnerships, real adoption stories but it feels… quiet. No massive updates, no flashy announcements, no big cross-border payment rollout proof, nothing trending. It was projected towards replacing old SWIFT rails. Yet outside niche corners of Twitter/Reddit, I don’t see screenshots of pilot programmes, banks actually sending stuff of real transactions with XRP live on the ledger. Japan ? no update. By when can we expect Ripple to just breakout with its amazing system ? Seriously Ripple had lot of time since past half decade to just get things ready and get things real once the case was dropped. But it feels like no one is serious out there

  On May 8, 2008, 18-year-old Joshua Vernon Maddux left his family's home in Woodland Park, Colorado. He was last seen that morning and did not return. At first, his disappearance did not clearly look like a crime. Joshua was legally an adult, and relatives later described him as creative, independent, and known to enjoy walking and traveling. His family considered the possibility that he had left on his own But Joshua never checked in. His father, Michel Maddux, later said the family first thought he might be staying with friends. When they began asking around, no one had seen him. The timing made his disappearance even harder to absorb. One of Joshua's brothers had died the year before, and now the family was facing another loss without knowing whether to grieve, search, or keep waiting. For seven years, the case remained unresolved. In August 2015, workers were demolishing an abandoned cabin near Rampart Range and Kelley's roads in Woodland Park. The building sat on the former Thunderhead Ranch property and had reportedly been vacant for more than a decade. As the chimney was being taken apart, workers found human remains inside. The body was badly decomposed and partly mummified, wedged in the narrow space above the fireplace. Dental records identified the remains as Joshua. The identification was also reportedly supported by the missing tip of his right index finger, which Joshua had lost in a childhood bicycle accident. Joshua had vanished at 18. By the time he was found, he would have been 25. The cabin was less than a mile from his home. The cabin's owner, Chuck Murphy, later said he had noticed a bad smell at times but assumed it came from dead animals. Mice and chipmunks sometimes got into the abandoned building, and the chimney was behind a large piece of furniture, giving him no obvious reason to inspect the fireplace closely. Teller County Coroner Al Born said investigators found no signs of trauma. There were no obvious broken bones, gunshot wounds, knife marks, or injuries that clearly indicated an assault. Toxicology reportedly did not reveal dr*gs, although the condition of the remains limited what could still be determined. Born concluded that Joshua had likely tried to enter the abandoned cabin through the chimney and became trapped. Joshua was tall and thin enough to fit inside, but a wood-burning insert blocked the bottom of the fireplace. If he slid down from the roof, he may have reached a point where he could not climb back out or pass into the room below. His d*th was ruled accidental. The ruling was based on the evidence investigators still had: a body inside a chimney, no clear skeletal trauma, no obvious restraints, and no physical proof that another person had killed Joshua or placed him there. But the explanation was not entirely satisfying. One issue was the chimney itself. Murphy later said a heavy wire mesh had been installed near the top years earlier to keep animals out. If it was still there when Joshua disappeared, entry from the roof would have been difficult or impossible. Born said investigators did not see the mesh in their photos, while Murphy said demolition workers had already removed metal debris before anyone realized it might matter. Another issue was Joshua's clothing. Later accounts attributed to Murphy said Joshua was found wearing only a thermal shirt, with other clothing inside the cabin near the fireplace. If accurate, that detail did not rule out an accident, but it made the simplest version of the chimney theory harder to explain. It raised the possibility that Joshua had been inside the cabin at some point before he d*ed, or that the sequence of events was more complicated than a direct attempt to climb down from the roof. © Reddit #drthehistories

  After I stopped laughing at the headline and read it, it sounds like they're just going to the mods of the horror short story forums and saying "give me the email of the most popular short story writers here" It's funny because as far as I'm aware, Kane didn't interact with the backrooms reddit and is actually quoted as saying he had "no idea" about the backrooms community when he started his series. It's kinda funny seeing it try to sneakily imply that the success of the backrooms is due to Reddit when you could remove it from the equation entirely and nothing would change. The article is TECHNICALLY not wrong about Reddit helping the communities grow, and says Reddit, Youtube, and Tiktok are where the communities grow. Which is not the full story: Reddit is the easiest to search historical opinions and has the horror short story community mostly now. Reddit functions as a kind of retention layer for long term discussion. A lot of that happens in discords but they're silo'd off so practically useless for any discussion like this. And yes I know "reddit haha" but the horror writers there are pretty good, so it's not the worst idea in the world. Although there are some big examples of tiktok native series doing well (Angel Engine), afaik short form is more used to share analog horror than make it. YouTube is where most of the horror growth is imo, especially for video since the horror analysis/commentary community pulls in MASSIVE numbers that (unfortunately only sometimes) filter down to original creators like Kane. Kane's work is great but I don't think it would be half as popular if other YouTube creators didn't latch onto it.

  @NBCNews Good. Other people's lifestyle choices shouldn't be celebrated outside of friend circles and Reddit, nor forced on those who don't support it. If straight pride night was a thing, there wouldn't be an issue.
