    Founders, quick reality check 👇 Where does your SaaS actually get attention? Where people care 👇 >Reddit (deep pain, real users) >TikTok (fast reach, low intent) >X (builders + distribution) >YouTube (slow burn, high trust) Pick one you’re doubling down on. Why that one?

    @MansplainStuff @rationalposts @Reddit Yeah I believe that, and it's the real issue. Too damned many that Canadians end up having to pay for. Need to get them all out, the fact they can't make it in our "land of milk and honey" warms my heart and hopefully means they will F off soon

    The 5 Reddit posts that actually drive SaaS signups: 1. "I built X because I was tired of Y" - founder story, no pitch 2. "Here's what I learned after 6 months of doing X manually" - earned insight 3. "Honest review of every tool I tried for [problem]" - include yours last, honestly 4. Answering someone's question so thoroughly they DM you - no link needed 5. "We hit [milestone]. Here's what worked and what didn't" - transparency wins The pattern: Every post that works leads with something real. Every post that gets banned leads with a product. Reddit doesn't hate marketing. It hates marketers who haven't earned the right to speak yet. Save this.

    I just talked to a vibecoder on Reddit He was actually a software developer himself, so working with AI is much easier and much better for him than a non-developer but still... he had issues as the codebase grew starting from scratch works amazingly well for the first stages of the project as things get more complicated, the prompts must be more specialised, and you have to do smaller things in smaller steps so the gain in time you can get shrinks by a lot I am ready to bet that the next few years will still be like the wild west, where devs use AI as companies experiment with all sorts of setups for this we are far away from drawing conclusions but this thing will be here to stay, and we wont figure things out at least by 2030

    @barefoothopes @sam_ikin That stat is UTTER GARBAGE. I know the facts better than you (or your precious Dr Google). 1% is the cases they've FOUND. There are many, many more. Just spend a few mins on reddit & you'll understand the depth of the problem.

    time to close this reddit rabbithole then move on to other socials like instagram, x, linkedin for AI agents I gave everyone 6 months to innovate and nobody did anything so its time to continue thats what happens when you move too slow you let some guy from chicago lap you

    @reshmushroom Social media damaging our youth. This ain't just old people being overly concerned. It's real! It's damaging your brains, making yall stupid. They tell you how to think, what to think, who to vote for. They remove posts they don't want seen. Reddit the worst of em all. They stop talks about gun violence in schools that might solve the problem. It's because the problem is good for business. It makes them more money for kids to keep getting bullied and shot in our schools so they silence the talk that might eradicate the problem. They killing your kids for their profits #SocialMedia

  • theAIdreamer
    iamfaheem (@theAIdreamer) reported

    @boardyai The faster founders answer this, the more a pattern shows up: they did not wait for people to find them. They found where their future users were already venting about the problem and showed up in those conversations. Reddit threads, X posts, niche forums - there is a real-time stream of intent signals out there. Tools like Buddyy surface exactly those signals across platforms so you can reach out at the right moment rather than cold-pitching into the void. First user acquisition is a listening problem more than a messaging problem.

    Side hustle idea that takes 5 minutes to start: 1. Write a ChatGPT prompt that solves a real problem 2. Paste it on @pste_io 3. Share the link on X, Reddit, communities 4. Repeat No Gumroad. No landing page complexity. Just paste → link → sell.

    @hogsbreathvip82 @Australis_Felix Heh I responded to that post and explained how immigration is a big contributor. Haven’t checked back yet but since it’s Reddit I know it’ll have been down voted to hell, if not deleted by a mod for threatening social harmony

    Half of America visits $RDDT every week. But Reddit's users aren't really Reddit's users. They land via Google, stay for 10 seconds, and leave. 120M DAUs look great on paper. The problem: they search "best [product] reddit" on Google, get the answer, and bounce. Now AI summaries do the same thing without even sending you to Reddit. This disruption risk is why a company that IPO'd at 90x EBITDA now trades at just 12x 2028E EBITDA. Extremely cheap for a business growing revenue at 34% CAGR. But there's a bull case too. Reddit's future may depend on its lawsuits against AI model developers. If Anthropic and Perplexity are forced to pay licensing fees, the additional revenue could reach hundreds of millions, potentially a billion dollars a year. That alone could multiply the stock several times over.

    @reddit_lies It wouldn't surprise me if they did this but the reddit factor takes it down to a 'probability zero' of occurrence. However, if boomers, it's entirely possible.

    @0x49fa98 If your first reaction to your child barely beginning to notice the existence of a given veil is to sit them down and demonstrate fully circumscribing and then piercing it, then your kid is gonna grow up being a wikibrained reddit-atheist and purchase his first fedora by age ten.

    Pawan Singh (@pawanwashere) reported

    @rashiumapathi Most SaaS founders fail on Reddit not because they posted too much but because they showed up to take before they gave anything. The trust deficit is the whole problem and no growth hack closes it faster than just being genuinely useful first.

  • Beloved2026

    Prompt: "Act like a world-class researcher who meticulously checks their work. List the top 5 urgent and painful problems faced by [target customer], with supporting evidence from Reddit, Amazon, Facebook, and other real sources. For each problem, show me the exact language people use to describe the pain, where they're already trying to solve it, and what existing solutions are failing them." If people aren't already complaining about it, the idea is dead.

  • michael_upstack
    Michael @ Upstack Data (@michael_upstack) reported

    Reddit has quietly become one of the best-kept secrets in DTC. CPCs are 50–70% lower than Meta. The platform hit 108M daily active users. Buyers convert at 2.5x the spend of other channels. And ChatGPT's and Claude's shopping research now pulls answers directly from Reddit threads, which means every dollar you spend there is doing double duty. Brands like Cotopaxi, Cozey, and MeUndies are already pulling 2.5x–4x ROAS on Dynamic Product Ads. But there's a problem most brands don't see. Reddit's browser pixel is losing more than 30% of conversion events. Ad blockers, iOS restrictions, cross-device journeys. The algorithm can only optimize on what it can see. That's why Reddit officially recommends running the Pixel + Conversions API together. Server-side CAPI bypasses the browser entirely and sends matched, hashed identity back to Reddit so it can actually do its job. The hard part has always been the identity layer. CAPI is just a pipe. If you don't know who your visitors actually are, the data going through it isn't worth much. That's where we come in. Today we shipped Upstack's Reddit Pixel integration. The same identity graph that already enriches signal for Meta, Google, TikTok, and Klaviyo now flows into Reddit's Conversions API. Same campaigns. Cleaner data. Higher EMQ. Better ROAS. If you're running Reddit ads in 2026, Upstack has you covered

    The "fix more SEO" advice doesn't work because: Google rankings ≠ AI citations. Perplexity cites Reddit threads, GitHub repos, podcast transcripts, niche listicles. If those sources don't mention you, no SEO budget will save you.

  • TomBilyeu
    Tom Bilyeu (@TomBilyeu) reported

    Say you're trying to figure out if anyone actually wants the product you’ve been thinking about building… The manual version is you reading 50 customer complaints in your niche on Reddit yourself. It's slow. It's tedious. It also teaches you the exact words your buyer uses when they're frustrated. You can't fake that knowledge. You have to earn it.

    @unusual_whales Reddit is not profitable. Y'all are going to have to fix your America derangement syndrome if you want to stay in the green.
