  I was on the toilet sobbing while reading Reddit posts with a similar issue and everybody’s advice in the comments was to either go to the emergency room or manually extract everything at home and I didn’t want to do either

  @ladydesiree The problem is the NUMBER of bad women. That number is growing becasue of the proliferation of Marxism and Feminism through Reddit and TikTok. That number is also poisonous to our elections

  @IstekVicks Exactly. People on this platform just don't know how to act, that's not a new thing. But, I don't know if the wave of burner accounts are from Reddit or something, but they seem to think that this platform runs like it or a discord server.

  formasty had zero traffic for weeks. flat line. nothing. then around aug 9 it started moving. slow at first, 7 or 8 visitors a day. then it hit 20 in one day. 158 unique visitors this month. 4m 53s average visit duration. 7 people on the site right now as i type this. reddit ads, SEO, posting daily, building a wordpress plugin. none of it felt like it was working until it did. still early. still small. but the graph isn't flat anymore and that matters more than it sounds.

  @PraiseTheFoo1 @Hollow_Monocle0 I don't know about SS but currently the main reason Lotm fandom doesn't like RI and looks down on them is because RI fans on reddit pro gen AI and they are even making arts and videos using AI while Lotm fandom is very dominant Anti AI on reddit.

  First post in a while. Expect more to come. KOLs are still the first thing every project asks for. I've lost count of the calls where a founder comes in with a marketing brief and it's basically one line: "we need KOLs." Not a strategy. Not a distribution plan. KOLs. It's the most requested service at @hypepartners by a mile and it's what most projects think marketing is. And I get it. You see other projects trending, you see the big accounts posting about them, and you assume that's the whole game. It's part of it. But how you engage KOLs matters more than most teams realise, and it should never be the only thing you're doing. So here's how I'd think about it. How to actually work with KOLs Most of the pain in this space comes from how deals are structured, not from the creators themselves. If an agency takes a percentage of your spend, your incentives are broken from day one. The more you spend, the more they make. They have zero reason to negotiate hard on your behalf, and every reason to inflate budgets. You will overpay and you'll never know by how much. If an agency only works from their own roster, you're not getting the best creators for your project. You're getting the creators they have deals with. That's their inventory problem being sold to you as a curated network. The right KOL for a DeFi protocol targeting sophisticated traders is not the same as the right KOL for a consumer app, and no fixed roster covers the whole market. Then there's hidden fees. Undisclosed margins baked into creator rates, "management fees" stacked on top, kickbacks from the KOLs themselves. If you can't see exactly what the creator is being paid versus what you're paying, walk away. The alternative is working with a neutral agency. One that isn't taking a cut of spend, isn't pushing a roster, and can analyse the entire market to find the creators that actually align with your project. That's how we run it at Hype: transparent rates, negotiate the best deals we can get, and pick from everyone, not just whoever we have a relationship with. It sounds obvious but it's shockingly rare. KOLs are one piece of a distribution strategy This is the bigger point. Even done perfectly, KOLs are one channel. If that's your whole plan, you are not doing the basics of cost efficient distribution. The projects doing distribution properly right now are stacking channels, and the common thread across the ones that work is UGC, not brand accounts. Reddit. Real community growth, not a brand account posting announcements into the void. Crypto Twitter is a bubble; Reddit is has a huge amount of crypto community discussion, and it's indexed heavily by Google and every AI model. Posts and comments from real users build karma and compound for years. A brand account gets ignored or nuked by mods. Users talking about you doesn't. Shortform video. TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts. This is how content is consumed now. And again: UGC massively outperforms brand accounts. A polished brand video does a fraction of the numbers that dozens of creators posting daily content will do. The algorithm doesn't care about your logo. It cares whether people watch, and new accounts are rewarded with better push to satisfy user dopamine. The play is volume. Hundreds of videos per month, at a cost per view that makes a single big KOL deal look mad. Putting it together Use KOLs for what they're good at: credibility, narrative, reaching a specific audience through a voice that the audience trusts. Pick them carefully, buy them transparently, work with someone neutral who can target the whole market. Then complement them with high-volume UGC distribution: Reddit communities, shortform video, a mix of real people making real content AND AI generated content. We've seen it with numerous clients now that AI SFV content outperforms a lot of real content. UGC is where massive views are found at a cost that is negligble when compared to KOLs, and it's the part almost everyone skips because it's harder than wiring money to ten influencers. KOLs get you trusted attention. UGC gets you major distribution. You need both, and most projects are missing half the opportunity.

  @aburk203 @SirBylHolte I have no idea why Grok references platforms like Reddit and Wikipedia. They need to fix that ASAP. Regardless, if you argue with Grok you can usually get it to cave. When I get responses that I know are wrong I just break down the context and ask a lot of questions. It almost always admits that is was wrong.

  TL;DR replaced fitness apps with chat. it works so well it makes me think about the future of software. every couple months i change fitness apps. i tell myself: i’m looking for the right workout. the truth: i’m an interface absolutist. it’s not that existing apps aren’t good. it’s that even the great ones ask me to manage them. to tap, choose, log, configure. and what i want isn’t a better app. what i want is to not have to think about it. that’s a good interface. recently prompted, as one is these days, by an instagram video, i went down the calisthenics rabbit hole, and boy was it deep. i ended up on a reddit board with a protocol vetted by the collective for preparing your body for calisthenics. my first instinct was to build a system. a table. a database. a notebook. i downloaded a bunch of calisthenics apps. for a moment, i even thought about building my own. but by the time i noticed myself thinking about the implications of becoming an athletics-app founder, i remembered that the point was the workout, not the stuff around it. so i gave it all to chat. started a project, gave it the reddit link, and spent a couple turns refining a system that could, essentially, run itself. now, for the past two weeks, here i am at 7am, phone in hand, thumbing away like i’m locked in the world’s longest text message in between pull-ups and holds. the good parts. i don’t think about the workout. i change exercises by asking. if i feel like doing an extra core routine, it generates one on the spot and logs it. last week i texted it a photo of the equipment, and it rebuilt a portion of the session around what was actually there. but it’s also been interesting to sit with the paper cuts. for one, what’s the damn workout? it’s gone many turns past. i type “done” 50 to 100 times per workout session to have it move. every time there’s a hold, i have to switch to the clock app for the timer and when i come back the app greets me with an empty, new chat. just to name a few. but the solution to these nits is infinitely easy. just replace the input with a timer during holds, turn it into a done button otherwise, and even let me just shake the phone to mark as done, as one does to undo words in a text message. some of these patterns already exist in apps like codex. the sort of just-in-time class of interfaces that let agents ask us questions or plan work. this then sends me into a philosophical thought experiment about the nature of apps, the nature of chat, and of software itself. do point-and-tap apps still make sense? should they all become chats? or does this mean chat eats all software? does that then mean that a handful of labs swallow everything. or is this like saying the operating system ate all apps, when what operating systems actually did was birth them. maybe chat is tomorrow’s new OS and agents, the apps of that OS. and the question isn’t whether a handful of labs swallow everything, but how interfaces evolve with this new base material. i digress. plank hold...

  @andrewcoye @MattJMcClintock Maybe you’re lucky with the factory model you got or missed a big bad batch. Not my experience and many more like me (spend time on ultra instagram or Reddit) so don’t say there is no quality issue because La Sportiva, ASICS, Mtc, Norda all holding up fine

  HAS ROCKSTAR FINALLY FOUND CYBERLEEK? Cyberleek appears to have access to a real playable build of GTA 6, and Rockstar is reportedly still trying to identify who is behind it. The situation has gotten so bizarre that lawyers even showed up at the home of a Reddit user who had jokingly predicted the hack. Meanwhile, Cyberleek keeps releasing footage, pushing an anti-digital-games message, and hinting that bigger leaks could still be coming. The memecoin being promoted alongside the leaks is now down roughly 18% in 24 hours, with its market cap sitting around $15M. So what exactly are we watching here? A hacker cashing in, an activist fighting the gaming industry, or one of the strangest marketing campaigns ever? (This video contains no GTA 6 leaks or spoilers.) Full breakdown 👇
