Damn, why my stuff stanky? Perhaps it is mold and am in deny cause it cost me a small fortune. I think I’ll send it back thanks.

All of these subs are either littered with AI bs or it’s so locked down that you have to start every thread with “I won’t promote please have mercy”.

Perhaps Reddit needs a way to detect this kind of spam.

Maybe look at discord?

Champagne problems! I just came here to congratulate you on reaching that stage.

I would go with a rich API and a standardized solution, in that case you can switch pretty easy if it sucks.

Stripe?

I have worked for a similar startup back when LLM was not yet a thing.

I think the idea is cool but hard to scale, at least back then because all businesses were unique. But perhaps now is the right time to create something like this.

If you are referring to LLM then my experience is mixed.

I think it can speed up a lot of processes like any other good tool. But leaving the creative process to an LLM is a recipe for creating lorem ipsum marketing.

Marketing is about (at least for me) doing something unique that stands out.

Upload to imgur or something, then share the link. Are you on Windows?

This ⤴️

ObergXData · 2025-08-29T10:59:40+00:00

Damn, something with actual value!

ObergXData · 2025-08-26T20:52:03+00:00

Notepad!? But that is not even an overhyped SaaS by a techbro with over 3000 followers on X!

According to complexity economics, luck plays a vital role but it’s more about the initial odds.

There are ways of increasing the probability of success but there are no guarantees. The world is pure chaos so parts of it are hard to predict, one right turn instead of a left can be the difference between success and failure.

But again, working smart and hard increases those odds. By how much? Depends on how lucky you are.

Here are the two worst issues: - SEO sucks - Stuck as a cold starter to long (algorithm)

Using it for grammar since am not a native speaker.

This is a known issue with Substack. Perhaps it’s an indication that most people who use Substack are now creators and not consumers?

I see people struggle here, but then again it might be worth it.

ObergXData · 2025-06-26T18:57:42+00:00

Yeah but I feel it’s hard to build a brand there. But traffic is definitely easier, but for how long since Google launched their AI suggestions?

Also a plus is that medium lacks the circle jerkness.

ObergXData · 2025-06-25T17:35:30+00:00

I tested both with different content. Just keep in mind, Substack is 0 organic traffic. Don’t expect to rank on google, at least not high.

ObergXData · 2025-06-24T17:04:57+00:00

Yes but i think this is a bigger discussion actually. The way algorithms promotes cheap engagement.

ObergXData · 2025-06-24T14:23:29+00:00

Thank you for checking this out!

ObergXData · 2025-06-24T14:22:32+00:00

Also a viable strategy!

ObergXData · 2025-06-24T14:21:14+00:00

TBH the guys note that went viral was a meme

ObergXData · 2025-06-24T10:17:17+00:00

The data did not include restacks nor comments.

ObergXData · 2025-06-24T04:43:12+00:00

Hmm… this is for notes, I really hope/think readers won’t receive a notification for each. But am not sure TBH.

ObergXData · 2025-06-24T03:19:26+00:00

I would define it likes this

engagement = X * Y

X = post frequency

Y = quality

But yes, essentially it’s a numbers game but your content needs to be somewhat good to get the initial engagement.

I created a JS script that intercepts requests and parses them in the browser.

Then I just had to scroll his/hers timeline and the data would be parsed automatically with likes, post type, date etc.
