  @anthonygore @rackSpreader1 Same as internet, I remember when I was in school using Wikipedia for research was a big no no The problem is using LLM for anything beyond basic facts is tricky because LLM trained on Reddit slop. Try asking LLM for nutrition or dating advice and have a good laugh at "AGI"

  @Kingstonsmj @804Az56 @marievol6 They know about these dude lmaoo. You are not part of some secret society. These sites can be found from a Google search or a reddit post. This is literally how piracy has been for 20+ years. You can never stop it, it goes down and it gets replaced.

  People promote their products on subreddits like r/saas, r/buildinpublic, and then get banned and even if they do not get banned, get no users and then say Reddit Marketing does not work. Obviously it won’t work. You’re promoting your products to other founders and not your customers. Identify the problem you’re solving, the niche you’re in and where the people hang out. Promote there.

  @SirBylHolte Sorry, but did everyone on the train slow clap for you after you went off? Did the Reddit Mods approve?

  Reddit lead-gen tools: saturated market, walled API. Is there anything left? A dozen tools already do intent scoring and auto-replies. And since Reddit locked down commercial API access, the only real advantage the incumbents have is that they signed contracts before the door closed. would "fewer but warmer" conversations justify a higher price over a tool that just dumps a scored list on you? Trying to figure out if that's a real positioning angle or just cope.

  The problem is she talks like she exclusively uses reddit when really she should talk like mamiya takuji or nishijou takumi

  People think StackOverflow died because AI removed our need for it, but it was already on the downswing largely because it treated its most active contributors like poo poo. Listen to your users - take care of your power users (ESPECIALLY if you are essentially a social network) I would even argue that StackOverflow never had to collapse because it could have become a slightly more technical Reddit or a slightly more structured X. there's definitely a space for social media like that but they ruined it by making terrible people mods who punished and pushed away the most valuable contributors with nitpicky crap like this👇

  This ad spent £29K in 30 days. It generated 1,800 purchases at a 6.54 ROAS. Want to know what we *didn't* do? We didn't jump straight into writing hooks or briefing creators. Before we made a single creative, we spent two weeks living in the customer's world. Reddit threads. Amazon reviews. TikTok comments. Forums. Anywhere real people were talking honestly about the problem. We collected more than 1,000 customer conversations and grouped them by desire. Not what the brand thought customers wanted. What customers actually wanted. Their frustrations. The products they'd already wasted money on. The words they used when they weren't trying to impress anyone. That research became the brief. The brief became the creative. The creative worked because it didn't sound like marketing. It sounded like the customer. Most brands spend weeks making ads. We spend weeks understanding the people the ads are for. Which approach do you think scales better?

  Voice Drift: Why Your Message Feels Different on Every Platform A reader sent me a message: "I follow you on X and LinkedIn, and I feel like you're two different people." They weren't wrong. On X, I'm sharp and opinionated. On LinkedIn, I'm more measured. Both are true, but the difference is stark enough that it creates cognitive dissonance. A new reader following both feeds would reasonably wonder which version is the real me. This is voice drift, and it's not intentional. It's a side effect of repurposing content across platforms. When you write something once and adapt it five times, the core voice doesn't survive the translation. Each platform's norms pull your voice in a different direction. X pulls toward personality and wit. LinkedIn pulls toward professionalism. Reddit pulls toward skepticism. Instagram pulls toward visual simplicity. Each platform is asking you to be a slightly different version of yourself. After months of this, you start to diverge. The X version and the LinkedIn version are no longer two expressions of the same voice. They're two different voices wearing the same name. I've watched this happen to founders I respect. They start with a clear perspective. They post on X and it resonates. Then they try to reach the LinkedIn audience and they soften their message—add qualifications, acknowledge complexity, sound more diplomatic. The core insight is still there, but it's been cushioned with hedging language. Then they do Reddit, and they strip away the qualification to match Reddit's more brutal style. Now they sound confident and even a bit dismissive. Then Instagram, where they abstract the whole thing into a motivational quote. Then their blog, where they expand it into something so nuanced it barely resembles the original insight. After five translations, the voice is unrecognizable. The worst part is the erosion of authenticity. When you started out, you probably posted on X because X is where you were most authentically yourself. The platform's constraints—280 characters, fast feedback, conversational norm—all aligned with how you naturally think. You could be direct. You could be wrong and correct yourself in a thread. You could be playful. But then you had to translate that authenticity into LinkedIn, which is more buttoned-up. And the translation required you to become someone slightly more cautious. Someone who thinks before speaking. Someone who's more concerned with how they're perceived. That's not adaptation. That's dilution. I've noticed something: founders who build authentic audiences do it on one platform first. They don't try to be everywhere. They go deep on one platform and really nail their voice there. By the time they add a second platform, they have such a strong core voice that the secondary platform can't pull them too far out of shape. But most founders try to be everywhere from the start. And when you're everywhere, you're nowhere. You're trying to serve every audience's norms simultaneously, which means you're serving none of them authentically. The voice drift accelerates over time. After a month, you've adapted your message five ways. After three months, you're unconsciously starting with the platform in mind, which changes which message you choose to write in the first place. After six months, you're not even sure what you actually think anymore. You know what you think on X. You know what you think on LinkedIn. But the unified voice is gone. People feel this. They can tell when someone is being platform-optimized rather than authentic. The metrics might go up in the short term, but the engagement becomes hollow. You're reaching more people, but you're connecting with fewer of them. I talk to founders who've stepped back from building in public because they got tired of this. They liked their authentic voice on X. But X alone doesn't have enough audience size, so they tried to scale to other platforms. But scaling required compromise. So eventually they stopped. Better to be authentically small than inauthentically large. The tragedy is that this is a false choice. You don't have to choose between authenticity and scale. But you do have to choose between repurposing and staying true to yourself. When you repurpose, you're asking each platform to work with diluted content. When you don't repurpose, you're asking yourself to write the same thought five times in five different voices. Neither is sustainable. The third option—which most founders never find—is to write in your authentic voice and let a system understand how to present that voice across different platforms without translation. Not adaptation. Translation. The difference is that adaptation changes the message. Translation just changes the wrapping. I built Spotlaiz because I kept seeing this pattern. Founders with something real to say were losing their voice in the translation. They'd start out authentic and end up platform-optimized. And the worst part was that they didn't even realize it was happening. The drift was slow enough that it felt like growth. But voice drift isn't growth. It's dilution. And it's almost always the reason audiences stop feeling connected to creators, even when the creators are posting more frequently and reaching more people. Your authentic voice is your only real competitive advantage. It's what makes your perspective worth listening to. The moment you start translating it for every platform, you're competing on reach instead of truth. And reach, as a solo founder, isn't your advantage. Truth is. I kept my X voice as the source of truth. Everything else flows from that. Spotlaiz takes that voice and presents it in ways that work on other platforms, but the core is preserved. The drift stops, and the authenticity survives.

  @eggplantthree I didn't see it myself but I saw a Reddit comment saying that in the latest issue of her Weekly Pro Wrestling column, she said HHH wants Giulia from Japan but the PC trainers have other opinions. So maybe we'll see more "Giulia from Japan" in the future. I'll try to find the comment I saw and post it below.
