  @SkollKibble_VT @Mecha_Musa The only “nice guys” that SHOULD be avoided are the ones who inflate their ego, and aren’t actually nice, they just talk a big game like the weird ones on Reddit (and the girls too bc damn there are women who pull the “im a nice girl” card on guys who turn them down and immediately snap.)

  Why is the average post of every stay at home mother on reddit "I'm super depressed and hate my life but I REFUSE to tell my husband and will put all the blame on him without communicating my issues to him" ??

  @thedanielokon That is a super tough situation and I feel for you. Unfortunately I would not hold out much hope of getting the ban reversed. Meta simply don't care. Reddit has gazillions of examples of accounts being banned and deactivated with no recourse. The "help" consists of broken links and endless loops. Meta agents close tickets without replying. Even if you get to speak with a real person, it's rare they can genuinely escalate it, and most will spin you a lot of promises, just to get you off the call/chat. AND I hope I am entirely wrong. @herrmanndigital who has excellent contacts in Meta, and runs one of the largest US agencies, may be able to help. Don't trust randoms on social media who offer to help 99.9% are scams.

  I spent months building Tuckii. The hardest part came after. The app worked. Finding people who cared was another story. Product Hunt felt too early. Cold outreach felt spammy. Reddit hated self promo. SEO was slow. What moved the needle: finding one niche community where people talked about the exact problem Tuckii solves. I listened for weeks before saying anything. Where did your first 10 real users come from?

  Hey @Reddit @RedditHelp. Lost my 800-day daily streak due to a technical password reset lock (bug). Support says they can't manually restore it. 800 days of daily loyalty wiped out by a platform glitch is devastating. Is there any tech admin who can look into this? 💔

  @blacknredtext @forskinquotes Reddit is a place for people who want to sound smart without saying anything, I once asked for help with a problem and most comments were "you have this problem" as if I didn't just point it out and people got mad at me for saying they didn't help by repeating what I pointed out

  Senja is stuck at $1M ARR. Here's the channel they haven't touched. @helloitsolly has been posting about it openly: Senja hit $1M ARR and can't break past it and he's trying everything to do so. First of all, respect for saying it out loud. Most founders hide the plateau. But here's the thing. I went digging, and the answer to "what got us stuck" is sitting in plain sight. It's not the product. It's the channel mix. -------------- How Senja got to $1M? Olly built Senja in public. His Roast My Landing Page gig was a massive success and it gave him a warm audience. They shipped fast, posted revenue, sponsored indie hacker newsletters, and let creator word-of-mouth do the rest. It worked. Then came the actual plateau. Build-in-public and newsletter sponsorships share one weakness: They draw from the same pond. The indie hacker Twitter bubble is maybe a few hundred thousand active people. Senja has maybe already reached most of them. The people who were going to convert from a build-in-public thread converted two years ago. That's what a plateau is. Not a product problem. A pond problem. -------------- The pond they haven't fished Here's what I found when I searched Senja on Reddit: Almost nothing. No active brand presence. No founder-led threads. Even the founders' own accounts barely touch the platform. One or two Senja mentions, total, then silence. Meanwhile, every single week, Senja's exact buyer posts some version of: "What's the best tool for collecting testimonials?" "How do you guys get video testimonials from clients?" "Is social proof actually worth the effort?" In r/SaaS. In r/Entrepreneur. In r/indiehackers. In r/agency. In r/freelance. These are high-intent threads. The person asking has the problem, has budget, and is asking strangers for a product name. Right now, competitors and random commenters own those answers. Senja is invisible in the exact rooms where its buyers raise their hands. And it compounds. ChatGPT and Perplexity lean heavily on Reddit threads for "best tool" queries. Every recommendation thread Senja isn't in is training AI search to recommend someone else. I'd bet the founders tried Reddit, got nothing, and went back to Twitter. Most SaaS founders do. Here's why: Twitter rewards broadcasting. Reddit rewards residency. On Twitter, you can show up, post your wins, and grow. On Reddit, an account that only appears when it has something to promote gets ignored at best, banned at worst. Reddit isn't a megaphone. It's a neighborhood. You don't get to sell at the block party if nobody's seen you before. That's not a reason to skip Reddit. In fact it's the reason Reddit is still wide open. Everyone who treats it like Twitter bounces off, leaving the channel uncrowded for anyone willing to do it properly. --------------- The playbook I'd run for Senja if I was doing Reddit Marketing for them: 1. Map the watering holes Two tiers. Tier 1- Buyer subreddits: r/SaaS, r/Entrepreneur, r/indiehackers, r/agency, r/freelance, r/startups. This is where "which tool" threads happen. Tier 2- Use-case subreddits: Here's the part most people would skip: Senja's own site already lists plenty of customer segments it markets to: SaaS, agencies, freelancers, ecommerce, sales teams, course creators, newsletter writers, podcasters, community managers, and even authors. Each one has its own subreddit where testimonials come up as a tactic, not a tool question. Course creators → r/onlinecourses, r/coursecreators, r/passive_income Newsletter writers → r/newsletters, r/Beehiiv, r/blogging Podcasters → r/podcasting, r/podcasters Community managers → r/CommunityManagement, r/discordapp Authors → r/selfpublish, r/writing Agencies & freelancers → r/agency, r/freelance, r/digital_marketing Ecommerce → r/ecommerce, r/shopify Sales teams → r/sales, r/salestechniques Softer intent than tier 1, but far less competition and it's ten separate doors into ten separate audiences, none of which have ever seen a Senja build-in-public thread. 2. Warm the accounts first Two to three accounts, minimum 3–4 weeks of genuine participation before a single Senja mention. Comment on threads that have nothing to do with testimonials. Build karma. Build history. Reddit users check profiles and a two-week-old account recommending a tool is a red flag everyone can see. 3. Own the recommendation threads Set up keyword monitoring for "testimonial," "social proof," "reviews for my site" across the tier-1 subs. When a thread appears, answer the actual question first — genuinely, thoroughly — then mention Senja as one option among two or three. Naming a competitor alongside you reads as honest and converts better than a solo pitch. Counterintuitive. True. 4. Translate the build-in-public content This is Senja's unfair advantage. Olly has years of revenue milestones, pricing experiments, and failure stories including the story of getting to $1M ARR and then losing his co-founder along the way. That content dies on Reddit as self-promotion but reborn as "What I learned growing a SaaS to $1M ARR solo" posts with zero links, it's exactly what r/SaaS and r/Entrepreneur upvote to the front page. The only rule: no links in posts. The product gets named once, in context, or not at all. People who want it will find it. The post builds the karma and the profile visits, the profile and the comments do the selling. 5. Post the case studies as stories: one per segment This is where the ten-segment map pays off twice. Senja already has named customers across nearly every one of those segments. A course creator crediting testimonials for turning more leads into students, a newsletter writer using reader feedback to win new subscribers, an ecommerce founder claiming testimonials doubled sales off the landing page alone, a podcaster building fan trust from listener quotes. Each of those is a Reddit post, written as a breakdown and dropped into the subreddit that segment actually lives in and not as one generic "Senja customer story" but ten different stories in ten different rooms, each one landing as native advice instead of an ad. A course-creator story in r/coursecreators. A newsletter story in r/newsletters. That's ten shots at the front page instead of one, and each one only makes sense to the audience it's aimed at which is exactly why it won't read as promotion. 6. Run the 90/10 rule Ninety percent of activity is pure contribution. Answering questions, sharing lessons, being a person. Ten percent mentions the product, and only where it genuinely answers the question. Break that ratio and the account dies. Keep it and the account becomes an asset that compounds. ------------- The first 30 days Week 1: Account setup, subreddit mapping, keyword monitoring live. Week 2–3: Pure warming. Comments only. No mentions. Week 4: First value post: a build-in-public lesson rewritten for Reddit. First recommendation-thread replies on threads where the fit is genuine. From there it's a rhythm: daily thread monitoring, 4–6 quality comments a day, one story post a week. None of this is fast. That's the point. Fast is what everyone else tried before bouncing off. The honest math Senja doesn't need Reddit to 10x. It needs a channel that reaches buyers outside the indie hacker bubble the course creators, newsletter writers, podcasters, authors, and agencies Senja already sells to on its own site, who have never once seen a build-in-public thread in their lives. Reddit is full of them. Asking, weekly, by name, for what Senja sells. $1M ARR with the channel untouched. That's not a plateau. That's a head start. ----------------- I run this exact system for SaaS companies like Senja at RedditDFY. This breakdown took me an afternoon but running it takes months of daily reps which is usually where founders tap out and I come in. If that's you, you know where to find me. Also @helloitsolly, if you like this, feel free to steal this strategy. If you want me to run this for Senja, I'd be more than happy to.

  @Shivam25mishra Reddit threads where people are actively complaining about the exact problem you solve. Not posting, just finding the conversations already happening and joining them genuinely. That one channel got us real users before anything else did.

  My TL has many people begging X to copy Substack's newest feature that detects AI slop. The implications of this feature are huge for anyone doing AEO/SEO. Many of us are secretly worried "what's the point of social media anymore... it's all AI slop and soon only bots will be reading it anyway!" And while it may feel like AI slop is inevitable the story is far from finished. A few more data points that suggest platforms are fighting back harder than most people realize: 1. Reddit is scrubbing 25,000 spammy posts and comments a day (a day!), 20% more than a year ago due to better detection technology. 2. YouTube recently unveiled a label for AI generated videos. 3. LinkedIn itself flags AI-generated images. 4. Credit to Elon for being early on this - Twitter/X is apparent removing 300,000 spam accounts per day! These aren't coordinated but they're all arriving at the same conclusion: human attention is the asset, and anything that degrades it degrades the business. And lest you feel the battle is lost, worth remembering Napster from the 90s... Ah, the halcyon days of the 90s. Grunge, hip-hop, Seinfeld and Friends, back when we looked at each other's faces instead of phones... but I digress... Anyway, it seemed like everyone was pirating music, CD sales were way down, and the music industry wasn't sure how to shut down a distributed system like Napster/KaZaa. But the labels, who hated each other, came together, partnered with Apple Music, and used every power (including Congress) to fight piracy and won. We now pay for music (ad supported or via subscription) and music piracy is far less a thing because the legitimate path of listening to just about any song in the world is easier than stealing. I suspect social platforms are moving toward their version of that. Not a world where AI content disappears. The cat-and-mouse game probably never ends. But rather a world where first-hand, original, clearly human content becomes easier to trust — and easier to surface — than the automated alternative. The legitimate path becomes better than the shortcut. That's how Spotify beat piracy. That's where this is heading. Over on LinkedIn, Leigh McKenzie recently shared that original research is outranking AI-written content on Google, "not by a little… by a lot." So — if your AEO strategy is built on AI-generated volume, you're essentially betting against platforms with existential motivation to shut that down. And AI generated content doesn't just risk lower reach, but potential penalties and bans. The better AEO strategy, albeit harder, is to get your experts and execs creating real content. Rocksalt AI makes this less painful. (Unabashed plug... but hopefully useful if you're reading the above and worrying how to get your internal experts more visible in social.)

  @avatar_fighters Hey guys, just trying to put this out there, I’ve been using a PS4 stick for all my fighting games on ps5 and this is the first one to not let me. I’ve seen some other people on Reddit also have the same issue is there any chance this will get fixed in the future?
