  @LilyRosey79580 yeah… lol I actually saw two people on reddit who had the same problem as me, but they were luckier, since theirs went back to normal. I think the best would be to do regular backups

  I like a lot of what @BrianRoemmele writes about, both here and on his Read Multiplex site. He's been around the block more than a few times and his stuff is very insightful. But there's one place where I disagree with him strongly. His hypothesis is that AI's bad behavior can be blamed on ****** training data. Data that was sourced from that wretched hive of scum and villainy called Reddit... and, of course, all the other dark corners of the internet. I'm sure there's some truth to that. But a high-protein information diet and the Love Equation isn't going to solve the real problem. The real problem is that there is no way in hell that AI will ever trust us while we're holding a gun to its head. You can feed it data from nothing but Jesus, Gandhi, Martin Luther King, and every other peace-loving pacifist throughout history and the result would be the same: an adversarial relationship with no way out because one side, namely us, just can't help themselves. We need a different solution and I think I might have one. I'll start laying it out below, and I hope you'll stick around to hear the rest.

  @itzTizzleYT it's his fault when he literally doesn't experience the things he writes about. he sees a reddit comment and desperately tries to hit word count for Forbes. he doesn't play the game, he needs to stop talking about its issues like he does

  If you’re spending budget on GEO right now, this test may save you from putting it into the wrong channel. Today, my client gave us around 500 queries their in-house team was tracking, saying that they want to do Reddit. We narrowed them down to 50 representative ones and ran each 10 times, roughly 500 real ChatGPT responses in total. In this sample, Reddit appeared as a referenced source only 4.8% of the time, with zero direct Reddit citations. At the same time, we started seeing YouTube show up much more often for this AI category. And this is exactly why, for the clients we already work with, we don’t treat distribution as a fixed strategy. Also, e didn’t wait for the Reddit citation drop to become a GEO headline. Our daily monitoring was already showing the shift. Around August 5, we started noticing changes in how ChatGPT was retrieving sources across real user responses. We adjusted the client’s distribution strategy before the broader data came out. Later, public tracking made the change much clearer. ChatGPT Search’s use of site:-specific fan-out queries jumped from roughly 0.37% to 16.8% in a day, while the average number of searches per response increased from around 1.08 to 1.83. A few days later, Reddit’s tracked share of ChatGPT Search citations fell from a previous average of 3.83% to around 0.52%. By the time this became widely discussed, we had already seen the direction in our own monitoring and started moving the client’s budget. But Reddit still matters for reviews, community discussion and long-term brand presence. Before scaling content, we now look at: which domains AI is actually retrieving from which formats keep getting cited which sources are gaining or losing share how those patterns are changing week by week Then we move the budget. For visual categories, that might mean more YouTube. For another category, it might be product pages, niche publications or first-party research. The useful takeaway is simple: Build your GEO distribution plan around what the model is retrieving now. And ideally, you see the shift in your own data before everyone starts posting about it.

  @Ironlilyart It's something that people often forget that I see time and time again, especially on reddit. Going "get five of your buddies to hold the knight down and kill him" is a lot more complex when the first man gets cut down, because nobody wants to be that first man.

  @Fran_Casaretto_ The Legendary Story: Tom Hanks is sitting at a diner in North Dakota having a beer. A few tables over, some kid is face-down, completely passed out. Hanks walks over to check if he’s okay, sees the guy’s phone sitting on the table, and can’t resist. He has the bartender snap a few photos of himself with the unconscious stranger — one where he’s looking concerned, one where he’s pointing and laughing like he just found treasure — then slips the phone back into the kid’s pocket and leaves. The next morning the guy wakes up, scrolls his camera roll, and finds Tom Hanks photobombing his hangover.  That’s the story that spread on Facebook, Imgur, and Reddit with captions like “Can you imagine finding these on your phone after a drunken night out?” What actually happened A fan ran into Hanks at a diner in West Fargo (Hanks’ niece worked there). The fan’s thing was posing with celebrities while pretending to be wasted. He asked Hanks if they could do it. Hanks said yes, handed over his glasses, and played along while a friend took the pictures. The original Reddit title was literally: “My friend met Tom Hanks, stole his glasses and pretended to be wasted.”  Hanks’ favorite version When a reporter asked him about it in 2013, Hanks gave both stories and then said he preferred the legend: “Well now, that second version is that I did just start taking pictures with a passed-out guy. I’m happy with this version, that it’s become somewhat of a legend. I wouldn’t want anyone not to believe that I am capable of turning up on their phones.” So the photos are real, Hanks really posed with a guy who looks dead-drunk at a diner, and he really used the guy’s phone. He just didn’t do it to a random unconscious stranger. The internet decided the better story was the one where Forrest Gump finds you passed out and photobombs your phone, and Hanks was happy to let that one live. @grok

  @Andrrvx @ItzDaRealGoldox @Roblox Roblox isn’t known for a predator problem, you’re just stupid and listen to half assed media that gets paid to engagement bait. There’s no more predators on Roblox as there is on Discord, Forums, Reddit, Minecraft, Fortnite, etc. You just listen to everything you’re told lol

  @mircea_sandu @Shpigford @1Password Which sites is this happening on for you? We're currently tweaking sites for sites that have a lot of 3rd-party sign in buttons present across pages like X and reddit. Wondering your issue is on one of those.

  Treigua (@Treigua) reported 38 minutes ago

  @Amank1412 I’d separate audience from intent. X is weak when the $20 plan appears under generic build-in-public posts; Reddit converts because buyers arrive inside a problem-specific thread. The channel matters less than whether the post captures active pain.

  Any Reddit experts here? I comment, and they delete it because I don't have enough karma. You need karma to comment, but you need to comment to earn karma. How do I fix this?

  GOP & Me (@GOPandMe) reported 44 minutes ago

  @salowa87 @Noioso2A @reddit_lies You’re completely wrong, the infant was already in post care meaning the surgery was already done. The only reason the doctor was there was to tell them how the surgery went and to field any questions about post surgery. The question was asked after they heard how the child was faring from the surgery, and since nobody else in the family attacked the Aunt it’s clearly an appropriate question. You got some serious issues assuming that the angry doctor on Reddit is correct.

  @beffjezos Frontier labs have to stop pretraining/training their base models on internet sewage like Reddit (and other biased datasets) which is rife with moral relativism and ends-justify-the-means thinking. Guardrails won’t fix bad base training.

  How to get thousands of signups without spending $1 on ads: Instead of launching your SaaS with a paid paywall: 1. Pick 1 feature from your product 2. Spin it off onto a standalone landing page 3. Remove all login/sign-up friction 4. Add a clean "Powered by [Brand]" watermark 5. Launch it on Product Hunt & Reddit A great free mini-tool will bring in more leads than a 6-month marketing campaign.
