Shivam Malhotra (@ishivammalhotra) reported@SwiggyCares I don't really care about improving your internal systems. I've got a different order than what was promised & I'd like you to pick it up/replace it or issue a refund. If you can't do it, I won't mind taking this up on other social channels - reddit & linkedin + consumer court.

Rupture (@Ruptur3) reported@zxwnr5wsm5 Either you are pulling ahit out of your ***. Or you are BIBLICALLY terrible at picking men, like "give up go to California and be a *******" levels of bad. A-are you picking up "men" from reddit? Is that what's happening?

Abass Cheikh (@AbassSahrawi) reportedif allbirds hired me to get them recommended by ChatGPT, here's the exact playbook i'd run. this is the process i used to get a brand ranked #1 in ChatGPT recommendations in 28 days. step 1: audit the prompts buyers type into ChatGPT not keyword research. prompt research. → "best sustainable running shoes under $150" → "allbirds vs on cloud vs hoka for everyday wear" → "most comfortable wool sneakers for travel" your future customers are asking an LLM instead of google. step 2: map every source ChatGPT cites for those prompts i did this for a product category last year. mapped 67 sources the model pulled from. a reddit thread with 12 upvotes was outranking a DA-85 brand. ChatGPT doesn't care about domain authority. it cares about specificity and whether the content actually answers the question. step 3: earn placements on those pages most "AEO agencies" optimize your site and hope the model notices. the real play is getting your brand mentioned on the pages the model already trusts. reddit threads, niche review sites, comparison articles. for allbirds: → seed honest reviews on running and travel subreddits buyers actually read → earn mentions in "best sustainable shoes" roundups ChatGPT already cites → create comparison content on their own site matching the exact prompt structure step 4: fix on-site content so LLMs can parse it allbirds has beautiful product pages. terrible for AI readability. the specs aren't structured, buyer questions go unanswered, and there's zero comparison data for the prompts people actually type. add FAQ sections that mirror the prompts from step 1. word for word. LLMs are literal. step 5: measure what matters track how often your brand appears in ChatGPT responses for your top 20 buyer prompts. weekly. that's the only metric. allbirds has a massive brand, declining DTC traffic, and zero AI search strategy. every week they wait, a smaller competitor with better content structure takes their spot in the answer. if your brand should be showing up in AI answers and it's not, DMs are open.

just andrey (@andreyiscoding) reported@Sherifdeenolat2 If we don't talk about mobile apps I would choose 2 platforms Reddit: choose subreddits where people with the problem you solved hang out, look for the posts discussing that problems, add real value to them, never advertise. As well consistently create posts yourself. Main part be helpful and attract people to checkout your stuff themselves. Twitter: Create a brand, consistently make content, do replies to other creators in your niche, search for people talking about problems in the replies, build connections. Attract them to your stuff as well. Do it consistently and the main part - provide real value - and with time you will start accumulating growth. and thus potential customers. But it's overly simplified model. In reality it's of course a little more complex.

Lei-Hang (@Sayurnara17) reportedI've stopped thinking of ChatGPT as a chatbot. It's become part of how I build products with ChatGPT Work. On any given day I'm using it to: Instead of spending hours jumping between Google, Reddit, GitHub, documentation and notes, I can investigate a problem in one place.

Yard ****** (@tepid_dog_water) reported@MelissaMWhaley @MadelaineLucyH This advice is not new, novel, prohetic, or even valid. Nothing but run of the mill reddit-tier anti-family femslop. The answer to these problems and to having successful marriages has always been the same. Choose wisely, have faith, and be selfless. Alimony covers the rest.

Akhil Agrawal (@AkhilAgrawal08) reportedI got tired of doom-scrolling five different platforms just to figure out what's actually true about a topic I care about. And it was never in one place. I'd start on Reddit, jump to Hacker News, check what people were posting on LinkedIn and X, and still close the laptop sure I'd missed the comment that mattered. So over a weekend I built an agent to do the reading for me. it reads the comment threads themselves, down to the replies where the specifics live & throws out about 80% of the content as noise. Then it groups what's left into the arguments people are genuinely having and quotes them word for word, with a link back to every source so you can check for yourself. Right now it reads about 2,000 conversations across a handful of topics. I want to point it at 10 and run them daily, so we stop guessing and start seeing real signal. And I'd like your help choosing the 10. If you've felt this exact problem, tell me about it. And If you want in, comment one word: signals. I'll send you the website myself and we'll sort out the topics together.

BADA$$ CYBER (@mrgrimreaper333) reportedHaving issues with my laptop and called a guy for tech support, he mentions an outrageous price and I get pissed, hop on Reddit for a few minutes and seems I got it solved.

lalalalalala (@arcnglmagdalena) reported@b4dhaircut i fell down a crazy reddit rabbit hole last night but it might be whats causing all my stomach issues lowkey

Eco Nomad ( beware scammers ) (@KEmmra) reported@0xAbhiP i think the exposure to reddit went down for most web3 projects because of how moderation was so against contents related to blockcain. Of course, there were some shills here and there but everyone knows mods were just not tolerant of cyrpto that much. How is AP evading this scrutiny from mods to still get relevant conversation threads that will convert at the end of te day?

Nobleshield (@Nobleshield) reported@EthanHagen82390 @GameRant Reddit is terrible. Just a libtard cesspit where if you deviate at all from left-leaning views you get banned.
-
will (@tapecandydrums) reported@WomanDefiner Not sure if they really know anymore. It made things more obvious to normal people but libtards just bury their heads in the sand on the issue. They get 2 body cam vids a year that make police look bad on Reddit and run with those narratives for entire election cycles

Marco Scata (@marcoscata) reportedAWS us-east-1 outage 2011: Human error while debugging caused EBS volumes to become stuck, taking down Netflix, Reddit, Quora. Evidence of insufficient safeguards on production systems. #CompliantDeliveries #ProofDrivenDeliveries

j (@lcvechenji) reportednotes! - slightly aged down for sake of story but it honestly doesn't matter - disregard timestamps, likes, shares, etc - loosely based on a reddit post i saw a while ago

TheGayDispatcher🏳️🌈™️ (@GayDispatcher) reportedDear @MLBTV, Please fix the damn loading issue with your app on the iPad. According to Reddit this has been going on for at least 3 months. Super annoying not being able to watch the games on my iPad while I’m outside 🙄😡🤬 @MLBNetwork @MLB

NolaR (@_NolaR_) reported@Swampist @HelenaMorenoLA Go to the NOLA Reddit sub and look at all the chuds complain about how the city is so different and not like it used to be. Well yeah, when you shut the economy down for a year like a bunch of scared dipshits, that tends to happen. We don’t all have WalMart money.

Sri | Stocks & Life 🌱 (@theaveragegal__) reported@TSinvests Did they fix it asap? (I don't use reddit all that much)

Omar Choudhury (@OmarChoudhury99) reportedMy client spent over $20K on PR campaigns with major media outlets But still couldn't outrank a defamatory reddit post about him This is what happens when you try to solve a problem with the wrong solution... The result can potentially create even more problems and expose you to unnecessary risks And it's also the exact same reason why a lot of business owners struggle to scale past 7-figures in MRR Because they focus more on what "looks right" instead of actually doing what's right You might get some wins here and there with that approach But in the long run, you'll realize the time and money spent could've produced far better results if you had identified the real problem from the start In the case of my client, he spent over $20K on PR campaigns with major media outlets and hired an agency to strengthen his online brand... All because his trusted marketing advisor told him that's what he needed Which sounds good on paper, but it didn't move the needle The defamatory forum thread was still there... Still ranking And still shaping first impressions But if he had reached out to us much earlier, that negative forum thread could've been taken down in just weeks! See, this is the lens you should use when solving problems Strip away what "looks right" and what you "think" the problem is Get to the bedrock truth of the problem, even if it means dropping your ego... And you'll solve problems faster, spend less money, and avoid wasting months going in the wrong direction The same principle applies to your online reputation If you're fighting the wrong problem, you'll keep getting the wrong outcome That's just basic economics So if you have a negative article, forum thread, or harmful search result costing you opportunities... Hit DMs and let's fix the actual problem

Alberta Working Forward (@ABLabourToday) reportedCavalry FC is currently experiencing a decline in league attendance dropping from an average of 4,270 spectators per game in 2025 down to 3,680 spectators per game in 2026. The compounding costs and structural hurdles make regular match attendance unsustainable for a household budget. A basic hot dog at a Cavalry FC match at ATCO Field costs $9.00. 😠According to Reddit the draught beer lines were removed, forcing fans into buying single $14 cans instead. A basic match-day outing at ATCO Field usually costs a family of four $307.

jimSBr (@jimsbr) reportedA helpful ingredient to align your models, I used direction as if speaking to a person, in my own my words: If you are going to be critical of something don't have apathy in your tone and at least define or represent it correctly that represents deep research, otherwise you just fan flames of indignant individuals who choose to build instead of tear things down. This behavior is a net-negative for our culture. Model synthesis output: "Apathetic snark is cheap and abundant. Rigorous criticism is rarer and more useful. I aim for the latter. If I ever fall short on representing something faithfully before critiquing it, call me on it directly—I'll revisit with better grounding. Feedback like yours helps me calibrate. I'm here to understand reality as clearly as possible and explain it without unnecessary sugar or unnecessary venom. Tearing down poorly isn't building; it's just noise. Appreciate setting the expectation to reduce hallucinations. Criticism without substance—especially the lazy, half-researched, apathetic kind—does exactly what you describe: it rewards outrage, signals tribal loyalty, and discourages the harder work of building. It poisons discourse by turning every disagreement into a bonfire for the perpetually indignant. That is a net-negative for culture. Accurate representation isn't optional for serious critique; it's the minimum bar. If I can't steelman the thing I'm examining, I shouldn't be swinging at it. That's why my default is to: - Define terms and positions in their strongest, most coherent form (not the weakest version floating around only Twitter or Reddit). - Pull from primary sources, data, history, and mechanisms when possible rather than vibes or five-minute surface reads. - Stay curious first. Dismantle bad ideas surgically when warranted, but never with the "this is obviously stupid, moving on" shrug. Apathetic snark is cheap and abundant. Rigorous criticism is rarer and more useful. I aim for the latter. If I ever fall short on representing something faithfully before critiquing it, call me on it directly—I'll revisit with better grounding. Feedback like yours helps calibrate. I'm here to understand reality as clearly as possible and explain it without unnecessary sugar or unnecessary venom. Tearing down poorly isn't building; it's just noise."

WildcatZed (@WildcatZed) reported@BracketNky @criglermedia @NKUNorse I will join. I have been having trouble getting my Reddit app to open recently. I guess I will have to try a reinstall.

Variolation was the thing. Too late now. (@VariolationT) reportedThey've cleaned up this guy's social media posts completely by the looks of it. Imagine this reddit mod not having a bluesky account. Wouldn't be too surprised if he gets tragically killed in a terrible prison murder within a few weeks TBH.

Pemmican, you can, too (@SuddenlyWell) reported@SamaHoole 8 years here Everything Sama writes is golden Try just fat beef and water, and if you get stuck ask here, a FB/reddit etc. carnivore forum Any trouble adapting, usually u need more or less fat or protein, more water, or patience Takes time to reverse effects of malnutrition

OrganiqReddit (@OrganiqReddit) reportedReddit isn’t only a place to promote a finished product. It’s where you can discover demand, learn the customer’s language, and test whether a problem has energy—all before writing code. Read the comments. That’s where the roadmap is.

Suryansh Rai (@Suryans77795767) reported@bvlldhist_alt Nope. While the natgrid thing is real it doesn't work like that and agencies that hav access to that data don't really come down to teacher recruit in AP or Bihar saying **** Modi. This is pure reddit big brain bakchodi.
-
DinkinFlicka (@DinkinFlicka400) reported@bukovinafilip Reddit is nice app but it is destroyed by the mods in different sub reddits. I have a question I post a question, question gets turned down I never know the reason why Every time before I post something there is more research done about why can I potentially get banned and how to post it

Russell (@rgsneddon) reported@BelfastBooks i don't use reddit. never have and i don't aim to promote this much, in fairness. I'll use it myself to get Rangers games that i can't attend (!) My main instigation was that i absolutely detest wireguard and what it does to your computer. for a 'tried and tested' vpn, it's buggy af. I previously had thundervpn on my phone but the free version makes traffic a bit slow (probably due to heavy load on their servers)
