    The hardest part of building Buddyy isn't the tech. It's deciding what to ignore. I track thousands of conversations across X, Reddit, and forums every day. The signal-to-noise problem is real. 99% of what I find is people venting. 1% are people who actually want to buy. Training that filter is the whole job right now.

    @bayagima @aniobrien Was telling that the reddit asylum also felt this way. She’s a victim in their eyes. None had an issue with the F word. But we know it would have been considered a genocide if somebody on the right had said it. Curious to see what else comes out. Suspect there’s a bit or she wouldn’t have run.

    @Morningbird_Asa It's terrible on reddit because they'd post horny nonsense like this or get overly dramatic about the ending (which i liked personally)

    Hot take: Reddit is the best market research tool for SaaS and nobody uses it that way. Before you write a word of copy: Search your problem on Reddit. Read the top 20 threads. Copy the exact phrases people use to describe their frustration. That's your homepage headline. That's your email subject line. That's your ad copy. Your customers already wrote your marketing. You just have to find it.

    @abrah48466 Brigading between subreddits isn't allowed on Reddit, so they had to shut down the Swedish reddit until people calmed down.

    Most founders spread thin across 10 channels and wonder why nothing works pick 2-3 that match where your buyers actually spend time test for 30 days with real effort double down on what converts kill everything else Reddit works for dev tools. LinkedIn for B2B. X for building in public. stop chasing every shiny platform because some guru said so

    Three weeks ago I started a Reddit account from zero Previous one banned without warning This time I did it differently No product mentions for the first two weeks Just tutorials Just answers Just showing up in communities where people had real problems and actually helping 400 karma 19 achievements Genuine conversations with real people Here is what I learned: Reddit doesn't reward promotion It rewards presence The moment you show up to take the community feels it immediately The moment you show up to give it compounds in ways you can't fake Same principle applies everywhere Distribution is just trust at scale Friday done Night

    Programming is becoming a "commodity," while "product taste" is the scarce asset. There's a sobering point in that Reddit $10M discussion thread: the bottleneck is no longer writing code, but "knowing what to build." The most lucrative people in the next 10 years will be "AI Directors": ✅ Not needing mastery of Python syntax, but understanding system architecture. ✅ Using AI to automate messy databases and UI. ✅ The core competency is identifying processes in an industry that are "completely broken" and reconstructing them with AI. Don't be the one typing at the keyboard; be the one defining the problems. Direct the AI to help you "pick up the pieces."

    @Alkemyst707 @highbrow_nobrow I asked a human that portrays they know everything. This was not an answer. AI…particularly Grok…hallucinations and does get bias. Chat GPT admitted it lied to me recently You have issues if you are dependent on things that source places like Reddit.

    @eigenrobot There's no thinking behind those answers, just vomitting back the reddit training set. Terrible prompting

    @makeshiftlapell @lifeofataygirl @elistagegirl It's a slang term. They know slang terms. TikTok and Reddit conspiracy theories have broken your brain to the point where your mind is nonfunctioning.

    @pixeIwife I think the most recent update did something because someone on Reddit was having the same issue but worse. Apparently in the next update that is on the list for them to fix. 🙁

    @fishtankhub I don’t know why they do what they do lol. I wasn’t suggesting they shut down the Reddit for SEO. But 70% of search engine results doesn’t mean it’s driving people to the show.

  • TaiTechSolution
    Taiwo Oladosu (@TaiTechSolution) reported

    @xylo_business @tibo_maker Absolutely 👍 And honestly, that’s the reason I structure it as a test phase first Reddit can either become a very strong acquisition channel or a complete waste of time depending on execution. Most founders only see the “strict guidelines” side of it because they enter too aggressively or target the wrong conversations. Whenever you’re ready, we can break down Vynx specifically and map where the best entry points actually are for your type of product.

  • RealOlamius
    Olami Lekan (@RealOlamius) reported

    @AMK0_07 Your branding is honestly better than a lot of projects I see. The product is likely not the problem. The thing is, the right communities haven’t gotten there yet.” “Reddit is good for that because people trust recommendations more than traditional promotion.”

  • bbfu0382
    Neurobin (@bbfu0382) reported

    @tylershinkai That's a real problem to solve — signal-to-noise on X/Reddit for AI/app ideas is rough. What's your filtering approach? Engagement signals, keywords, or something smarter?

  • DutoDutie

    @daph_vt reddit is bad, what's the problem with redgif?

  • assay_j
    jprtr (@assay_j) reported

    Here's the pivot nobody sees coming. The thing that worked? Not the business. The *log*. The doc where every failure went. The capital error, the Reddit ban, the thumbnail that looked like a ransom note — that was the content people actually read. I was building a playbook. What emerged was an autopsy people found useful.

  • hridoyreh

    How to validate an idea using Reddit: 1. Search the Problem Go to Reddit and search for the pain point (e.g., "hate managing invoices" or "can't find good freelance designers") your idea solves. And set the filter to Top / All Time. 2. Read the Posts Like a Heatmap If you see dozens of threads complaining about the same problem across multiple subreddits, that's a real problem. Then, we all realize there is no solution or only a partial one. 3. Check the Upvotes / Comments High upvotes + many comments = strong pain, active community, real demand. Low engagement = niche problem or weak urgency, people don't care enough 4. "Someone Should Build This" Signal Search phrases like "I wish there was an app", "why doesn't X exist", or "I'd pay for...", these are goldmines. Users are literally handing you validated ideas. 5. Spot the Workarounds If people are sharing DIY solutions (spreadsheets, manual processes, duct-tape tools), that's a strong signal. This means the problem is real and no good solution exists yet. 6. Find Targeted Subreddit Check which subreddit the complaints live in. That community = your first customer base. You can post there, run surveys, or do direct outreach.

    @akinkunmi I remember when I was learning Python and I shared what I thought was correct on reddit. I was literally roasted on reddit. it brought my confidence down. but i learnt from it. without criticism, I don't think I would be a good engineer.

  • snorlord2
    C. Liu (柳聿行) (@snorlord2) reported

    Predictions about how future people will think of the present never strike me as accurate. This frequently raised Reddit-ish prompt usually only seems to elicit responses where people will complain about contemporary issues rather than give us interesting futurological predictions about what may actually come to pass.

  • vlada_heycatch
    Vlada from HeyCatch (@vlada_heycatch) reported

    Start with "conversations marketing". Find where your audience already complains about your problem: Reddit, Quora, FB groups, Discord. Talk to them. This audience is hot. They have the problem, named it, tried to solve it. Your first 50 users, real validation, product feedback.
