Mike Chong (@realMikeChong) reportedanother great Chinese invention after DeepSeek and GLM-5.2: 90-second fake billionaire divorce dramas that somehow make more money than Netflix on mobile sounds stupid until you look at the business model it’s not really “streaming” it’s TikTok + soap opera + mobile game monetization you get a crazy opening: poor girl secretly married the billionaire CEO evil stepmom humiliates her ex-boyfriend appears someone gets slapped then right before the reveal… episode ends next episode costs coins this is the important part: Chinese short dramas are not competing with HBO they’re competing with TikTok, Candy Crush, gambling loops, romance novels, and boredom the user is not thinking: “is this cinema?” they’re thinking: “wait what happens next?” that is a much stronger business than people want to admit the format exploded in China because it solved 3 problems at once: creators could produce much faster than normal film/TV platforms already had short-video traffic web-novel style storytelling already trained users to pay chapter by chapter China basically turned internet novels into vertical video vending machines and the unit economics are brutal traditional streaming: spend huge money make 8 episodes hope people subscribe wait months for feedback short drama: make cheap episodes test the hook immediately kill what doesn’t convert scale what makes people pay it’s closer to mobile gaming than Hollywood and that’s why the App Store rankings look insane you now have these short drama apps ranking above serious billion-dollar streaming platforms not because the shows are better because the loop is sharper Netflix asks for attention short dramas demand resolution big difference the other interesting part: this format is now going global ReelShort, DramaBox, ShortMax, DramaWave, NetShort, etc. same structure, localized tropes: US market: werewolves, mafia romance, secret babies, billionaire husbands China market: revenge, family status, hidden identity, social mobility fantasy SEA/LATAM/India: localized melodrama + mobile-first payment loops this is also why AI video matters Seedance 2.0 and similar models won’t instantly create a perfect 90-minute movie wrong mental model the first real use case is much smaller: generate test scenes make fake trailers localize actors/backgrounds A/B test hooks turn scripts into animatics make ads faster produce low-budget vertical scenes cheaper short drama is one of the first entertainment categories where “AI slop” may actually be economically native because the audience is not paying for prestige they’re paying for: plot velocity emotional payoff identity fantasy cliffhanger resolution so the question is not: “can AI make cinema?” the question is: “can AI make the next 90 seconds addictive enough that someone pays 99 cents?” that is a much easier problem and probably a much bigger market than people think my take: short dramas will not replace Netflix but they will take time and spend from mobile games, romance apps, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and casual entertainment the next big entertainment company may not look like Disney it may look like a game studio running hundreds of tiny soap operas with AI-assisted production and casino-level retention math

Daniel the DJ (@DanielG67128715) reported@Hammertimeeeee @pete_scanlon Hi 🐷! Hilarious that a stupid high school educated 🐷 is telling someone to “research” something. 🐷 are the stupidist members of society. Incidently, I don’t have a problem with this. It’s better that a dumb violent 🐷 be playing Candy crush than violating someone’s rights ACAB

30 (@prewardarkroom) reportedLA metro discourse triggers psychosis. It’s not good. It’s slow, it goes halfway to nowhere, and there’s always someone in distress while cops play candy crush.
-
Aidealist 🧙♂️ (@Aiism_Priest) reported@not__vee To be fair cowgirls exist. 🐮 Games can be hobby for both males and females. That's fine. Problem is trying to make all the games for both. That doesn't work because women want to play dress-up games and candy crush, while men want to crush enemies and have a cute Khajiit wife.
-
Ostateman (@Ostateman2) reported@TheOnlyDSC I'm pretty sure she had money for the many piercings she's sporting, but she has a problem having to pay for her own candy as the taxpayers (you and me) won't be supplimenting your fat arse with our money. A part time job might cover you candy crush, but you'd have to work.
-
Shatabdi Paul 🏄♀️ 🚴♀️ (@ShatabdiRocks) reported5. He played Candy Crush and used some other apps for seeing what's happening in the stock market and YouTube. YT is where I encountered the problem with the feed he was getting. It was filled with the complete AI slop of PM Modi. Any nonsense about Modi it would be there.
-
Microscopic Animal (@bttldog) reported@PersephoneK @SkolRant He’s diminishing the problems people encounter related to child rearing into being addicted to candy crush. That is a pretty fuckerish statement.

St James (@DadJr7) reportedI am real pains. Facebook don disable my account for some login attempts them whe no be me di doam. Ma main problem n'a ma candy crush.

Witness Protection (@WitnessPro96736) reportedyou kids are so spoiled when i was your age we didn't have space aliens controlling our brains! we had to do it ourselves! and candy crush was called bejeweled! and a warcraft raid needed an MSN screen-name sign in! and when your girlfriend telephoned your mom picked up!

Walnut Ave Value (@walnutavevalue) reportedLow TFR is a problem, but Candy crush is red herring here. Real problem is expensive housing. Need real incentives like 33% off taxes for every child under 18
-
Void (@ImaginaryVoid) reportedAn anon post rexosted by BAP and other anons just got taken down for “violating the rules” when it was calling Ben Sasse totally out of touch for saying “candy crush is the problem” ending with “kill yourself” It wasn’t even his account, it was a 60 minutes clip, we can’t even use edgy quips to express frustration anymore New regime same as old regime (except the new ones rules are arbitrary)
-
Pixel Operative (@PixelOperative) reportedIs this the beginning of the end for Xbox? One telling data point for me is that King and Mojang are the biggest studios at Xbox. When you think of Xbox, do you think of Minecraft and Candy Crush? I know I don't. I guess that's the problem. Studios being sold off: * Compulsion Games * Double Fine Productions * Ninja Theory * Undead Labs * Arkane appears to be closing entirely.
-
kounara コウナラ🍭🍬 (@KounaraChan) reported@soupybabee @naheshas but the problem isn’t mobile gaming? nobody ever talks about that and you know it you’re just being dishonest, mobile gaming is an outlier and is only big because phones are a requirement in our lives trying to include candy crush moms into conversation about gaming is insane
-
Idomeneus (@Idomeneus_OG) reported@thomaslhorrocks No, it's not the plummeting social trust nor decaying society visible every where you go nor the most expensive housing market in history. No, the problem is clearly Candy Crush.
-
Durin (@DURININININININ) reported@ukehotel oh yeah i only have pjsk and it stops working after ~30 minutes and either forces close or i have to close it, then open it, then close again, then wait a second and thennnn it will work again. and the only other game on my phone is candy crush. so it mightt be that

SheldonBurro 🐴 (@chocolatebodrio) reported@GafieldStan @M1das_OW2 Microsoft owns the IP since 2023 alongside Crash Bandicoot, Overwatch, Call of Duty, Candy Crush, Warcraft, etc.
-
RambleOn (@_Ramble_On_) reported@60Minutes Yes, it’s cell phones and candy crush. It’s not the exorbitant costs of living, having a baby, socializing to find a partner and not having enough time because life is filled with working, having healthy habits and finding products that aren’t harmful, etc. It’s cell phones.
-
dil (@khylnq) reported@KJavierFM mf got serious skill issue and blame it on the game. go uninstall the game and play some candy crush instead
-
Naran Row-Spaulding (@NRSmaine) reported@unquirer How incredibly sad is this? Talk about "Flailing at fictitious Windmills." It's so very clear -- the Directionless, the Lonely, the Disconnected -- no longer working, kids grown and gone - they've lost "life context." If they weren't doing this, it would be Candy Crush in a dark living room, or gambling the 401K at Bangor Slots, or maybe pursuing a new "love interest" in Nigeria, with a future slot on Reality TV. Too bad they can't figure out a "way to waste their time" that isn't more impactful and productive in the Real World.

Allegedly M (@SoAllegedly) reportedI’m not having kids because there’s endless wars, humans are destroying the environment, healthcare is expensive, college costs are high, the housing market sucks, and I have a lot of health issues that I don’t want to pass on but yeah, candy crush.

Street-tier_Deku (@DekuTier14598) reported@Koraka_Xylec @AustinLinto11 When has they ever said it was their own. They copy candy crush but no one have a problem with that ****.

-
Simon Acerton (@SAcerton) reported@CREID2852 @Empty_America Candy Crush is played a few hours a day, a huge chunk of the players way past fertility. What our society does, keep trying the same stupid solutions is the very definition of insanity. The reality is, there is not fix and we don't need one.

Bowserguy62 (@Bowserguy621) reported@jaderants @AI_EmeraldApple Majority of gamers are men..... They include candy crush in those demographics which skews into all the women who play it on their phones and iPads....... And also no man had an issue with lightning from FF, Samus from Metroid, or even Lara from tomb raider

Anju Juneja🇮🇳 (@junejamkanju) reportedCan we please come out of this candy crush campaign. We have far serious issues to discuss. All the fuel owners of this country are enjoying their luxury life and pushing the whole nation into lockdown and inflation caused by shortage and inflated rates of fuel

-
BlueBird (@BBTweets_01) reported@DouthatNYT Candy Crush is not the issue with the birthrate. It is job related though. If we traded salaries for a year, traded work hours even, I’d have five kids too!
-
Microscopic Animal (@bttldog) reported@Hockey_ftw @SkolRant He’s ignoring the actual questions people consider when considering children in favor of diminishing the problems. It’s pure ignorance. There are real addressable reasons, candy crush is not one of them.
