  Lekhansh Ojha (@lekhanshojha12) reported 36 seconds ago

  “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.

  @AleG17Ric Can we not just mass report the subreddit and get it taken down? They do nothing but post threads and pictures of other people to harass them and brigade against them and **********. It's not productive nor does it seem like something Reddit should want on their site.

  @ErimhanAhmet May 2024 — Former sailor’s photos called “worse than prison” A former Navy worker shared mess-hall photos on Reddit (raw-looking chicken, questionable brown meat, pink hotdog, moldy bread). Commenters included veterans from the 1990s who said shipboard food was “really quite awful,” greasy, and off-tasting. Covered by The Mirror.  Longer-term context from reporting: Sailors have long described repetitive menus, declining quality after fresh produce runs out (often within the first couple of weeks), and reliance on personal snacks, protein powder, and ramen to supplement. Midnight rations (“midrats”) were frequently cited as especially sparse leftovers. Ships returning to port rusty after long deployments October 2020 — USS Stout (DDG-55) after 215 consecutive days at sea The destroyer returned to Naval Station Norfolk looking heavily rust-streaked and weathered after a record 215 days without docking (COVID restrictions prevented port visits). Photos circulated widely showing rust patches on the hull. Daily Mail and later Naval News / NAVSEA coverage noted the rust was removed and the ship repainted after return. NAVSEA later used the Stout photo as an example of high operational tempo plus saltwater corrosion.  December 2021 — Broader “Navy is rusting away” reporting Task & Purpose published photos of multiple ships showing rust after deployments, including USS Arleigh Burke, USS Fort McHenry, USS James E. Williams, and USS Zumwalt, plus the 2020 Stout return. The piece attributed it to a “crushing deployment cycle” that left little time for preservation work.  2018–2019 examples and analysis • USS Curtis Wilbur drew comments for a “rusty and shabby appearance” during a 2018 Hong Kong visit. • 2019 Defense News “Rust Dialogues” discussed why U.S. ships often look rustier than allied ships: American vessels stay at sea longer with fewer port visits for chipping and painting. A 2005 photo of USS Normandy mid-deployment was contrasted with later, rustier ships. Corrosion control was already a multi-billion-dollar annual cost.  2023 NAVSEA statement Naval News quoted NAVSEA on rusty ships: high operational tempo + steel + seawater = rust staining wherever coatings are scratched. Crews do preservation at sea, but it is balanced against operations. The Stout 2020 photo was referenced again.  Rust after long deployments is treated by the Navy as expected cosmetic wear from saltwater and limited time for topside work while underway; it is usually addressed after return to port. Food complaints have been a persistent sailor grievance for decades, especially once fresh stores are gone and the 21-day repeating frozen/canned menu takes over. Both issues tend to surface most visibly after unusually long or high-tempo deployments with few or no port calls.

  I feel something this morning, just left a thesis on FOMO under @snoofi_RH 's $snoofi reddit stock coin pair. "ok listen, I am desperately trying to find the reddit stock pairs that could run. So far I have narrowed it down to 2: snoofi, the literal logo of reddit (and a token that got massive bid back in the days) and chud on long, which is something redditors can definitely resonate with"

  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.

  @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

  If you're using Reddit for SaaS growth, don't search only for your product category. Search for the problem people have before they know which product they need. “Looking for an alternative” “Anyone using…” “How do you handle…” Those conversations are much closer to buying intent.

  @moonlarking @pixaxiq @CH4R10T_TV The easy way to tell is the lack of engagement on the post other than views and likes. You can easily find places that will charge you like 15c for 10 likes with a quick Google search - people use them all the time. It's a huge problem on this site as well as Reddit.

  This tired 20th century psychoanalysis is just laughable. These “weak people” escaped slavery, crossed the desert, conquered a foreign land for hundreds of years, and kept the documents about it; preserving their identity so well against the Assyrians and Romans you’re still mad about them today. Now tell me, which angle of Jew-sperging are we taking here? Is it “Christianity is a Jewish religion”? If so, that religion conquered the gods of Homer and the lands of Odin, just not entirely the way poor ol’ Nietzsche liked with his made up system of beliefs that magically served what he liked and condemned what he didn’t like. The problem you’ll have with Nietzsche is the same he had with himself, there’s no means to ground his ideas of morality so they drift off into Reddit levels of cope. You don’t have to like Israel dude, but at least bring something other than ideas that were laughable over a century ago.

  I remember when I was in kindergarten there was this one disliked kid, he was weird and when we were 4-5 he was running around trying to kiss the other kids IIRC. One day, when we were like 5 or 6, a couple of us were sent to the bathroom by the teacher to do something, and since he was also there I just grabbed and threw him at the rest of the group while they weren't looking. They got mad at him and everyone went to the teacher to tell on him, and he was right behind them in the line to tell on me. I remembered that the last time I was in trouble for doing something I just said "I'm sorry" so I was holding the door shut and constantly saying that hoping it would go away like the last time. The last thing I remember was the teacher barging into the room while she screamed "are you insane", and then some memory from later of me crying at a table with a friend. Was I The ******* Reddit?

  @the_austin_hull @GreywolfLuke A furry? Good one reddit rambo. I loath furries as much as I loath retards who can't argue their position. Break it down for me. Where does the AR9 shine and where does the MP5 shine? Where to they each fail? Be objective. 1) the ar9s charging handle is not in an ergonomic position. It's not a natural movement for the support arm to cover all that distance to the rear. To argue otherwise is compete faggotry. Now the use of the bolt hold open does improve the economy of movement and is a legit argument in favor of the AR9 as it allows you to bypass the repeated use of the charging handle on reloads. 2) The in line design is not ergonomic as many shooters are shooting with cervical spine ***** while maintaining contact with the toe of the stock which puts the recoil impulse above the shoulder mitigating the in line recoil impulse of the AR platform. Factors to get around this are higher optic mounts but this worsens cheekwield. The drop comb on an mp5 let's the stock remain in the pocket, gives consistent cheekwield instead of the step down stock to buffer tube (position depending). The recoil impulse is above the shoulder due to this design but the bolt and carrier weight on the mp5 is lighter than the AR9 giving the user less muzzle flip and more control. Especially important in the era of FRTs. 3) The magazine changes are faster on an AR9 again the economy of motion comes into play here with the additional controls. No argument there. I keep seeing you say the AR9 is more ergonomic and vibes and **** but you lack any semblance of reason or argument to back your statements. In some areas like reload speed it is superior. In other areas the ergonomics are lacking AR boys are just too stupid to admit fault on America's rifle. I have AR15s older and have shot multiple disciplines with said rifles... and yet I can admit that there are two sides to the coin as to the AR15s "vastly superior ergos" as some like yourself would claim. To blanket state that the mp5 has poor ergonomics is absolutely a reddit tier take. We can go on and on but I suspect you wouldn't give ground because your **** take is backed by a huge ego. Stop being cringe. The whole gun community is literally calling out your take as gay and full of aids.

  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.
