  @cloudosaur @emilykmay It doesnt. It proves you're not reading. You're feeling. It throws into question your perspective on the situation as a whole. My whole point with the OP was she can't read either. Her post was unrelated to what the author of the reddit post actually wrote. Thats the issue.

  If I had to get my first 100 customers from scratch, here’s exactly what I’d do: 1. Cold emails Send 20 highly targeted emails. Lead with a specific outcome, not your product. No replies? Change the email and try again. Keep iterating until you get responses. 2. Social media DMs Find prospects on LinkedIn, X, IG, FB, Reddit, etc. Send a 15-second personalized Loom audit. Make the preview obviously about them. Give value before asking for anything. 3. Affiliate programs Find people who already have your target audience. Offer a commission worth promoting. Make joining and sharing effortless. Tools like @partnacdotcom let you launch and manage the whole program in one place. 4. Partnerships Find complementary businesses serving your ICP. Create a simple referral deal. Give them a reason to send customers your way. Start with 10 good partners, not 1,000 random ones. 5. Communities Find where your ICP already hangs out. Answer questions and solve problems. Don’t drop links everywhere. Become the person people remember when they need the solution.

  Before I go to bed tonight I need some rest. Dana's systems are an absolute good. They find bots. They find problems. They find Reddit headaches. They find everything. Dana's systems find all the problems. If you are stupid enough to say something purely threatening and toxic to me, expect to be removed. I do not care who you are. If you are one of these people you get punished, and for the right reasons. I do not reward stupidity!

  REDDIT $RDDT ADDED $2.6B TODAY OVER TWO CONTRACTS WORTH $130M A YEAR: Reddit RDDT at $158.11, +$13.47 / +9.31% today, one of the largest gains on the board among big, widely-followed names - and the company itself did nothing to earn it. The San Francisco company runs the network of user-written forums people land on when they add "reddit" to a search, employs 2,555 people, and makes almost all its money selling ads inside those conversations. The day around it: S&P 500 ETF Trust, ticker SPY, at $765.27 (after hours), +$3.49 / +0.46%. One stock, not a market. WHAT WAS ACTUALLY SAID Colin Sebastian at Baird kept a Neutral rating and a $185 price target - the level an analyst reckons the shares are worth - and made an unusual argument. Not that good news is coming: that the bad news is already in the price. Today's share price, he wrote, already sits near his worst case for two expiring contracts, and he valued a middling outcome at roughly $10 a share of extra value, a good one at roughly $20. That is the whole catalyst: an unchanged rating and a sentence about what the price already assumes. THE TWO CONTRACTS Reddit charges AI companies for legal access to its archive of human conversation instead of letting the text be scraped for free. Two of those deals matter: - Alphabet, the owner of Google, at $337.38 (after hours), +$2.36 / +0.70% today: a reported $60M a year, from a February 2024 expansion of its access to Reddit's data - OpenAI, privately held, with no shares anyone can buy: a reported $70M a year, from May 2024 Both expire next year. Neither has been renewed in public. Together that is $130M a year against $2.78B of revenue - the money coming in the door - across Reddit's last four reported quarters. Roughly 4.7% of sales. Set the two side by side. Today added about $2.6B of market value - the share price times every share - against contracts bringing in $130M a year. Twenty years of that revenue repriced in one session, on an argument that the fear had gone too far. WHY IT NEEDED AN ARGUMENT The June quarter, reported July 30, was not the problem. - Revenue $804.9M, +61% from a year earlier - the eighth quarter in a row above 60% - Advertising was $762M of it, +64%; everything else, licensing included, $43M - Profit $252.8M, or $1.25 a share, against about $0.97 analysts modeled, from $89.3M a year earlier - People using Reddit on an average day: 130.3M, +18%. Money earned per user: $6.18, +36% - This quarter was then guided to $860M-$870M of revenue, above the roughly $830M modeled Beat, guided higher, and down 20.99% the next session - $178.04 to $140.67 on July 31, on 29.9M shares against a normal 4.5M. Two worries did that. Visitors arriving from Google searches had gone choppy, and no new AI licensing deal was announced. Both are one worry in different clothes: how much of Reddit turns on a larger company's decisions. Which is why Alphabet is in this story twice - as the customer paying the $60M, and as the search box deciding how many people show up. THE PART THAT SHOULD SLOW ANYBODY DOWN Reddit did this exact thing three weeks ago. On August 14 it closed at $178.09, up 12.63% in a session, on news it would join the S&P 500 - the index that fund above tracks - on August 18. Index funds have to buy what the index holds, so that was real, dated, mechanical demand. By September 1 the stock closed $144.64. The entire 18.78% handed back over twelve sessions. Today's $158.11 close is one cent below the $158.12 it closed at on August 13, the day before the index news broke. Three weeks, two double-digit jumps, one full round trip. The shape today was strong - opened $143.71, dipped to $143.50 early, closed within 16 cents of its best price of the day - but on 5.32M shares against a 7.03M average over the past month. A 9% move on lighter turnover is a smaller crowd setting the price than the percentage implies. Wider frame: the shares sit 44.1% under the $282.95 of September 18 last year, and $19.93 / 11.2% under where they closed the day before the July report. WHERE IT SITS Reddit is fourth on the Hypergrowth Len5, which watches early companies growing fast. It earns that on both halves at once - 18% more people showing up, each worth 36% more - which is how a 61% quarter gets built without either number carrying it alone. WHAT WOULD CHANGE IT: management's own map for this quarter is +47% to +49%, the first sub-60% quarter in two years. Growth settling there and easing further makes this a bigger company growing slower, which is a different style's shape. None of the other five carry it. Momentum watches a company climbing on news of its own, and an outsider's opinion is not that; a high built on Reddit's own October figures would be. Quality-Value hunts a durable business at a fair price; 33.6 times the last year of profit is arguable, but durability is the harder half while a real share of visitors arrives through somebody else's search box - user growth holding through a referral downturn is what would settle it. No dividend answers Income in one line. Alphabet sits first on that same Quality-Value Len5 - the top name on it - because search and cloud are about as hard to displace as any business gets, and the price reads as a real discount rather than merely fair. WHAT WOULD CHANGE IT: search revenue shrinking as people ask AI assistants instead. WHAT TO WATCH, AND THE RISK October 29 is the next hard fact, when Reddit is expected to report - not company-confirmed. That is where +47% to +49% either lands or does not, and where any renewal news surfaces. The risk is that nothing was signed today. No contract renewed, no talks confirmed, no figure published. What moved was one analyst's read of what the price already assumed - and twice this summer this same stock has been handed a reason to jump and then spent a fortnight giving it back. Not investment advice.

  @GovofCO and @SenatorHick Assuming you are both working diligently behind the scenes to stop this ICE-OUT walkout on Friday. This sounds like a potentially dangerous situation for the students involved, and a potential lawsuit against COLORADO PUBLIC SCHOOLS. Parents believe their teens are safe in their classrooms. Meanwhile, the students are allowed to walk out at any time. No issue. No ramifications. But, how are all these teens getting to their final protest location? I've seen generous citizens on Reddit volunteering to pick them up. I'm sure it's nothing to be concerned with. Random strangers picking up teenage boys and girls from the parking lots of COLORADO PUBLIC SCHOOLS. What could possibly go wrong? I'll be following both of your social media accounts today to watch for updates on your diligent efforts to direct CPS to stop the walkout.

  “Claude Code writes my code. Why can’t it do my marketing?” I spend ~3 hours a day on Reddit. Not building. Not shipping. Scrolling. Hunting for the one post where someone describes my product’s exact pain. Writing comments that sound helpful instead of like an ad. Digging through profiles to find people who might actually buy. Then rewriting the same message 40 ways so it doesn’t feel copy-pasted. Most days I find the wrong post, DM the wrong person, and ship nothing. So I started building an MCP that hands the whole loop to Claude Code, finds the posts, drafts comments in my voice, builds the lead list, writes the outreach. Marketing runs while I go back to building and fix bugs. Would you use this, and what breaks first? Let’s talk in the comments. If you want in, drop “interested” and I’ll put you on the beta tester list.

  Pretentious bullshit niggеr fаggot. "Oh no! I won't be peaking into this colorful book of many visual stories. No-no! I don't want to touch this game and its many buttons. I do not want to consume that cartoon/movie/series! This is for manchildren plebs *******! I'm with the Ceaser. I'm with the Hitler. I'm ABOVE ALL OF YOU." God. What a ******* ******. The same fаg as Walsh with his "men should work and stop being infantile children with many hobbies" when he himself ******* sits on his *** doing nothing but talks to the camera so his content would be consumed by people, he wants not to consume content and go to the woods frolic with the wind in a field of flowers or melee a bear/moose or something. Reality is not medieval anymore. You aren't living in the woods. The times is now forcing you to seek help. And when help is taken away by foids, government, jooz, niggеrs and other "social economic factors" men can't go anywhere and do anything. So, they must seek help in other "media" and there are MANY medias that can help with this. You don't need to be a NECKBEARD FAT REDDIT NERD, but it's okay to have a hobby: games, comics, handywork, even knitting is good. Yes, you can go frolic into the field. Yes, you can go to the woods and read many books. But looking down on people who immerse themselves into fantasy of OTHER media you deem "unworthy" is lame and ***. Sometime ago people looked down on frolicking plebs while participating in grand ***** (he said *****) and dancing with elites. I'm working in gamdev my whole life and there are many people incredible: physically and mentally. They read and they can create and they still play games and read comics, manga and do all kind of silly nonsense in spare time. Don't be like this fаggot and lock yourself into something that HE forces you because HE THINKS PERSONALLY that it's not cringe. Nobody owes anyone anything. Do your own ****, just don't ****** kids and don't be a fаggot trаnny.

  Fable 5.1 has been out for about a day and Reddit has already discovered why some people don't like the way it writes: THE WATERMARK. Except...probably not. Fable 5.1 and Mythos 5.1 are the first new Claude models carrying Anthropic's statistical text watermark, and some users are already wondering whether that's why the newer Claude models feel more verbose, structured or exhausting to read. I went through Anthropic's actual watermark documentation, and their explanation makes that theory pretty hard to defend. The watermark doesn't insert hidden characters or extra words. It only nudges the random choice between equally acceptable next words. Anthropic says its testing found no measurable effect on creativity, readability or output quality, and cites Google's controlled testing of the underlying SynthID-Text approach reaching the same result. It also adds no extra tokens and essentially no latency. And here's the detail I hadn't appreciated: Anthropic is applying the watermark globally, even though it exists largely because of the EU AI Act, because it says it doesn't yet have a durable way to apply it only by geography. Older Claude models are eventually getting it too. Code barely gets watermarked at all when exact token choices matter. Factual passages get less watermarking for the same reason. The watermark lives mostly in places where “grey” and “overcast” are equally good choices. So if Fable 5.1 suddenly feels like it swallowed a management-consulting handbook, I wouldn't blame Brussels just yet. But humans being humans, we quickly try to reverse-engineer model behavior from vibes. Yesterday people thought Fable 5.1 existed because Claude suddenly seemed smarter. Today people think its writing changed because of a watermark. Last week a Gemini model told somebody it was a model that hadn't even been released yet. The Behavioral-Fingerprint Trap keeps winning. We are getting very good at noticing that something changed. We're still pretty terrible at figuring out what changed underneath it. And in 2026, it could be the checkpoint, the harness, the effort setting, the router, the safeguard layer, the system prompt, the watermark... ...or Claude just decided it really wanted to give you twelve bullet points today.

  B2B SaaS companies rank well in traditional search but still fail to earn citations in AI search. The fix? Getting experts to post about their knowledge on LinkedIn, YouTube, and Reddit. I built a system to make this programmatic, and it's forged from decade of reporting and vetting sources myself while writing for publications like Forbes, Vogue Business, and ADWEEK. It taught me something that most content strategists never learn: editors and journalists don't cite content, they cite PEOPLE — specific, verifiable, independently credentialed humans with a named point of view and a track record of being right about something.

  @moonlarking @pixaxiq @CH4R10T_TV The easy way to tell is the lack of engagement on the post other than views and likes.

  If your startup has no traffic right now, it's a skill issue. Reddit gets 10M+ daily visitors hunting for solutions to their problems as we speak. You don't need an audience. You don't need followers. You don't need a brand. Right subreddit. Right place. Right way to promote. That's the whole formula. The subreddits are public. The winning post formats are public. Everything is free. One post per 48-72 hours. 30 days. Zero bans. What's your excuse?
