D’Andre 🍂 (@_rdserrano_) reportedHey @YouTube why did my shorts algorithm completely change overnight? I can only watch my recommended shorts before it turns into AI slop, Pornographic content, and *********** clips?! Check your system because I’m clearly not the only one experiencing this issue via Reddit.

S (@Jehoseph) reportedFor five years I have been publishing research on payments infrastructure to an audience that fact checks me in real time. That environment shaped everything about how I work, because in a skeptical room anything soft gets torn apart within the hour. So the standard became simple. Every claim sourced to primary data. Every figure checkable in under five minutes. Invite people to verify rather than asking them to trust. That invitation turned out to be the entire distribution mechanism. Work that survives fact checking gets shared by the people who checked it. Here is what that has built. instant and final. Not as talking points. As arithmetic you can run yourself. Research that holds up. I write long form work anchored to primary sources rather than secondary commentary. Industry data, central bank figures, federal filings. I can walk you through what card fees actually cost merchants and families, why they keep rising, what remittances take from people sending money home, and what changes structurally when settlement becomes instant and final. Not as talking points. As arithmetic you can run yourself. Verification as a discipline. Before anything publishes, I run an adversarial pass on my own claims using AI with live search, specifically trying to break my own argument. It catches things constantly. A comparison company whose market cap had fallen 8 billion since I last checked. A percentage I had overstated. A figure written as 0.12 cents that should have been 12 cents, off by a factor of a hundred. Each of those, published, hands a critic the whole piece. Being wrong once in public costs more than being slow. Steelmanning before publishing. I build the strongest case against my own position before I make it. If a thesis cannot survive a deliberate attempt to break it, it will not survive the internet. Building the thing, not just describing it. When prose does not land, I build. Interactive applications that teach settlement mechanics by letting people operate them. Custom data visualizations. I have reverse engineered a production payments SDK to understand its architecture, because I do not think you should explain a system you haven't attempted to take apart. Experience is the teacher here. Community, in the unglamorous sense. 5+ years of daily presence across Discord, Telegram, Reddit and X. Not during a run up. Through the drawdown, the delistings, the regulatory overhang, and the long stretch where the loudest voices were the angriest ones. Answering the same questions until they stopped being asked. I have also previously built an ambassador program from zero for an early-stage startup, running targeted outreach into more than 30 specialized communities, writing the messaging, recruiting the advocates, and producing the weekly sentiment and engagement reporting myself. No agency. No team beneath me. De escalation as a skill, not a temperament. Communities go hostile fast, and most teams respond by going quiet or getting defensive. I have repeatedly turned viral skepticism threads around through transparent factual engagement, including resolving one public accusation thread within an hour. Trust is the only real moat you have with a community, and it is lost in the moments nobody planned for. Range outside the bubble. I also administer a 12,000+ member regional community with no connection to technology at all. Mainstream people, real stakes, daily moderation, ordinary disputes. If you want to reach past the audience that already agrees with you, that experience matters more than a large niche following. The through line in all of it is the same. Take something technically complex and badly explained, and make it land for people who are skeptical, tired, or brand new. That is one skill. I have just applied it in a few different rooms. I am open to community, communications and growth work. Full time or contract. Payments infrastructure and the emerging agent economy are where my genuine curiosity lives, but I care more about the team and the problem than the category. If that is useful to you or someone in your network, my DMs are open. And if not, nothing changes. I will keep publishing either way, same as I have through every stretch where it made no sense to. ethereum:0xff20817765cb7f73d4bde2e66e067e58d11095c2 zcash:native ethereum:native

Arthur (@arthuryuzbashew) reportedThe product I had ZERO hopes for just crossed $57,000 February 10th 2025: launched @mediafa_st after 2 failed startups It wasn't a genius idea I just had a Reddit marketing problem, solved it for myself, and made it public The wild part? 80% of that revenue came in the last 4 months 18 months of "slow" then boom 📈 Never underestimate the small problem you solved for yourself

Finn Mallery (@fin465) reportedMy AI product Origami crossed $100k/month within 6 months of writing the first line of code. Before that I was making $0 and never even worked a real job. I did NOT follow conventional wisdom. Here are the 6 exact steps I used to go $0 → $100k/mo. (every one is non-obvious imo): STEP 1: Sell it before you build it. The urge to perfect the product first is why most founders stall for years. I had never worked as a software engineer before + had no money to hire. So I cold-called, cold-emailed, and cold-DM'd people to get them on a call (more on this later). then I’d ask them one key question: "Would you pay for a product like this, yes or no? If yes, how much?" I had no demo or anything built, but I booked kickoff calls with each customer 1, 2, and 3 weeks out, then forced myself to deliver a product by each deadline. It broke for most of them. A few stuck around. Those were my first 4 customers. what I learned: with AI, building isn't the hard part anymore, getting customers is. If they need it badly enough to pay, you'll figure out how to build it after. So how did I get busy people on calls when they get a thousand pitches a day? It starts with step2. STEP 2: ICP-maxxing (get 100x more specific about who you're going after) I know what you're thinking “My customer profile is already specific” - but I challenge you to make it 100x more specific. Lets Say your customer is "small business owners who need a better website." Now you're competing with Wix, Lovable, and Claude Code for that person, so you lose. so make your ICP absudrdly specific instead, heres an of example of improving that one above: "Med spa owners in Texas with 2-25 locations, already running Google Ads, but sending that traffic to a slow WordPress site they threw together before 2022." Now look at everything I can promise them that Wix and Lovable can't: "One click and I migrate you off WordPress." "I already built integrations for the exact booking + POS software every med spa runs, so it works out of the box." "I've already driven results for med spas down the road from you." etc. Every one of those is a promise the big players physically can't make, because they're built for everyone. that's how you get the call + your prospect’s respect. When I started, I wrote 8 paragraphs on my customer: how they spent their time, what they cared about, their goals, + rewrote it ~20 times. STEP 3: Make the offer so good that saying no is irrational. Everyone obsesses over the perfect subject line or opening message. But 90% of whether someone says yes has nothing to do with your message. It's the offer. You can't write your way out of a bad offer, but a great one sells itself even when you fumble the words. Two rules I follow: Make it completely risk-free: "You don't pay until it works." "Full refund if I don't get you X." "Only pay per result." Make saying yes cost them nothing (no commitment, no setup, no homework). When I started, I'd send a link, a ready-to-use prompt built for their exact problem to drop into our product, and 1,000 free credits to each prospect. much higher upside for them (potentially getting great leads) than downside (spending 10 minutes of their time trying it) plus a bonus: this is the best market research you'll ever run. If someone says no to a risk-free, zero-effort offer that solves their problem, your ICP is wrong, so iterate on Step 1/2 i truly believe almost anyone can hit $2-5k/month with just these doing 3 steps well and stopping here But to get to $100k/mo, you’ll need to unlock real channels STEP 4: Pick the right channel. There are only ~8 ways to get new customers: Content (yours, influencers, reddit) Ads (google ads, Meta) Outbound Events/In-person SEO Marketplace, Partnerships, Affiliates Your Network PR / Earned Media but if you don't already have a business and want to move fast, only 3 can get you one tomorrow: content, ads, and outbound. I had no ad budget (you need $5-10k just to exit Meta's learning phase), so that left me outbound and content. I went all in on both. Let me start with outbound, because that's how I got my first 50 customers. The process: Build a list of the top 0.1% of your ICP (that profile you built in Step 2). Hit them on email + other social channels. Iterate your copy against the results. Expect a 1%+ reply rate. Reach out to 500 and get fewer than 5 interested? Something's broken, so fix the ICP or the offer. (Cold calling is even better if you want a faster iteration loop.) for finding perfect fit leads + drafting the outreach at this step I used Origami (@origamichat) + recommend it. STEP 5: Engineer viral content. Once outbound validated the offer, content is how I got the next 1,000 customers in a few months. People who go viral every time aren't lucky. They study what already worked in their niche and remix it through their own expertise. Don't study the algorithm, study the viral posts, because they're the only signal that matters. But going viral isn't enough. I've had posts do millions of views and drive zero sales, so you have to go viral AND hit your ICP. Even 20-50 likes is a win if those people are your exact customer, because that alone books calls every week. to find + remix viral content in my niche, I have only used Origami’s content feature (@origamichat) - thats been my secret to virality if you’ve seen my posts before Then comes the compounding move nobody does: - Auto-scrape everyone who reacts to your posts + every new follower. - Sequence them into your outbound. Now you're only reaching out to warm leads, which always crush cold ones. That's the switch that took us from grinding weeks to hit our first $1k/mo to adding $1k+ in new MRR on a bad day. STEP 6: Play the long game, the high bar IS the opportunity. There's no true overnight success, and mine wasn't one either. That "6 months" came after 4 years of outbound + years of content writing before I ever started building this product: I worked all day, 7 days a week, for almost a year before making my first dollar online. A 1% reply rate is brutal. A 1% viral rate is brutal. That's exactly why the opportunity exists, because if it were easy there'd be no edge. But get your ICP and offer right, and these channels start hitting hard. Every day you do it you get better, until you're a machine. The reason these channels are so great is that if you do them right you can literally get customers through both tomorrow. Completely free and in your own control Unlimited upside for both So there's no better time to start than now. if you found this useful, bookmark it ill be writing more detailed growth guides every week

Lorenzo | Meta Ads & Performance Creatives 📈 (@lorenzo_pravata) reportedThis is Wuffes' #2 ad by impressions: - worst-case hook - imagine-you spiral (slowing down right in front of you) - the lie we tell ourselves (it's just age) - failed everything - guilt reveal - native discovery (reddit thread, not an ad) - what do I have to lose - product intro - transformation (back and running) - you shouldn't wait (they don't live forever) - cta Format: captions-only emotional UGC (no voiceover, no fake ai) Instead of just copying the full script structure... Understand that this ad is built for a low-awareness buyer. The owner watching their dog slow down and telling themselves it's just age. They're not searching for a supplement. They don't believe anything can help. You can't put an offer in front of that person. They're not ready for one. So the ad moves them one level at a time: - the emotional hook meets them inside the denial - the reddit thread reframes it as "wait, maybe something can help" - the product stays hidden until they believe that first - "they don't live forever" is what finally turns belief into urgency Wuffes doesn't get mentioned until the viewer has already sold themselves. That's the whole game: match the structure to the awareness level. Cold, low-awareness audience gets story first and product last. Run your offer-led ad at them and you're gone in 3 seconds.

Toby **** (@ZhichengWang87) reportedDay 7 of learning how to market on Reddit: - You posted in tech/startup groups asking for product wise advice. - Instead you got a few replies willing to try :) - But it seems like signing up is a major barrier for many people, even when it's as simple as using Google? - Took some time looking for an anonymous method with test link, but it's too much of a detour at this stage due to the sheer volume of security issues to address.

Ismail Khan (@learnbyIsmail) reportedI just built a Reddit research agent in Claude Code that turns real customer complaints into ad angles 🤯 It scrapes the threads where people actually rant about your category, reads every post and comment, and hands you back a dashboard of pain points, exact customer phrases, and ready-to-test ad angles. All inside Claude Code. Perfect for DTC brands and agencies who want ad angles pulled from real customer language, not guessed in a vacuum. Reddit is the most honest focus group on earth. People say things there they'd never put in a survey or a review with a brand watching. So if you're writing hooks off your own assumptions — or digging through Reddit by hand, opening tab after tab, pasting quotes into a doc... This agent runs the entire loop: → Give it a product or category + a couple of subreddits → It searches Reddit for the threads where people actually discuss the problem → Pulls every post and comment → Claude reads all of it and finds the patterns → Builds a dashboard: pain points, desires, objections, and swipe-worthy phrases No manual scrolling. No pasting quotes into docs. No guessing what your customers actually care about. What you get: → Ranked customer pain points, each with a real verbatim quote → The exact language your customers use, ready to drop into ad copy → Objections and buying triggers pulled straight from the threads → 8-10 ready-to-test ad angles built from all of it Built 100% in Claude Code. Want the skill file for free? > Like this post > Comment "REDDIT" And I'll send it over (must be following so I can DM)

-
Prajwal Ajay (@praajwall) reportedFew reasons why I think ai adoption is low outside of Twitter/Reddit demos 1. All demos exaggerates how ai does something for them without actually talking about the steps or the limitations of it or the setup required for it. So they feel like they have to "learn it". 2. Skills, mcp and the fear of doing something wrong is still significant. There are drop offs even at the stage where people have to give permissions to AI to files and connectors because of the exaggerated claims of AI gone rogue. 3. Biggest of them all is retrofitting ai into their existing flow. They want it to modify their current pptx file vs create a html that can be shared as a pdf as the final output. Similarly with excel, it's painful(last tried a couple of months back) Oh, and also, it's absurd how easily people give up or defer it thinking is a future day's problem since ai is not there yet.
