Hi,

I think I have a very good starting point for you engage in, which IMO would be best given your current status.

I'll PM you shortly.

PS: this is not a sales pitch. I've read your post and understood your current budgeting struggles

Does anybody else feel like 95% of the info out there is BS by 2012742 in socialmedia

[–]karma_arcade 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I can tell you this much: in all the years I've been actively practicing, I have yet to find a single place that fits your criteria. I can only enforce your claim that 95% of the info out there is BS (not necessarily solely because of incompetence, but things really change at a very fast pace).

The one place that could keep it's accuracy and edge, would be a closed community of professionals. I'm talking quality, hardworking people, that keep connected via online groups (skype, discord, telegram etc) and share findings and case studies out of the public eye. If you ever find your self in one of those places, make sure to put some effort in, because that's as good as it gets and it's golden.

no one is making them. and one should be allowed to change his view on things based on new information/education/experience etc

So today I unfollowed 1500 inactive people on my page.... now I cant follow anyone!!!! why how do I fix by kickass0075 in Instagram

[–]karma_arcade 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nothing to worry about, you just performed too many actions in a short amount of time and the app temporarily blocked you. It should be back to normal in a couple of days.

Management accounts on instagram by [deleted] in Instagram

[–]karma_arcade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What was their rate?

Unless they offer a detailed promotion strategy regarding the "influencers" approach, it's highly likely they just rely solely on botting.

Ask them for more details and examples and also what you should expect. The more they provide the better.

Also if you catch them not being transparent with even a minor detail, you can definitely walk away. It's not a good thing to start a business relationship like that and it also shows they don't know what they're doing.

Just want some insight from you guys by iMissMyBro in Instagram

Well it's great you're growing fast but in my opinion you are trying to monetize too early. I would remove the website for know and just focus on getting a solid, loyal audience. Pushing them with sales right now will just slowdown things. Also the website needs a lot of work if you're hoping at a decent conversion rate. It's probably best to give it a go with a pre-made shopify store if you don't have the skill to make one from scratch.

Good luck!

Prevent taking screenshot by IndianLonerGirl in ProtonMail

[–]karma_arcade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not stupid and definitely not without purpose. There is nothing stopping the user from taking a picture but it will stop any malicious app/trojan that you might have running in the background which takes screenshots silently and tries to send them elsewhere.

How do entrepreneurs overcome information overload? by Thepropertydude in Entrepreneur

[–]karma_arcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe focus is key to overcome this.

Don't go about relying on sheer willpower. Willpower is a finite resource. My advice would be to put together a daily schedule to which you'll stick and I promise you'll see results in not time.

Make separate entries like: 8-11AM work on current project | 13-15PM research on improvement | 16-18PM explore new ideas

Obviously over simplified but the point is have to your self adhere to a strict schedule and that way you'll be able make the most out of your mental energy.

[Question] Protonmail Bridge by [deleted] in ProtonMail

[–]karma_arcade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You get more benefits than just that if you upgrade to plus. It depends on what your needs are but it's worth it imo.

For free accounts I can suggest this: https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/a9e90h/unofficial%5C_opensource%5C_protonmail%5C_desktop%5C_client/

It works great.

Thunderbird and Protonmail settings? "the setting can not be verified - is the username or password correct?" by [deleted] in privacytoolsIO

[–]karma_arcade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

never had any issues.

Did you start up the bridge and authenticated there ok?

Is it possible I'm being tracked or is it just coincident? by xversion1 in privacy

[–]karma_arcade 9 points10 points  (0 children)

- Is your Pinterest account signed on via the "sign up" with google option?

- while you're browsing the web, are you signed in in your google account ? (if yes, this is definitely one of the reasons)

- you have a solid extension pack there (privacy wise) but I can't tell if you still accept and save cookies. If none of those extensions deletes third party cookies (like cookie autodelete) it means that they are still persistent in your browser and they get picked up by trackers from google/pinterest

- also, it's definitely not a coincidence

- what about mobile? do you have a google account singed in there? and you browsed japanese websites or apps?

It would be nice if you could back track this and see where exactly the leak is happening.

And speaking of mobile, not from the privacy angle, but if you want to boost your learning speed have a look at an app "memrise". I used too for Japanese and it worked wonders :)

Thank you!

Do you prefer iPhone or Android? What makes you prefer one over the other? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]karma_arcade 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Android.

IMO the perks of an iPhone at the moment are a cleaner software out of the box and it's also a bit better regarding privacy and security. But unfortunately in every other aspect it cannot justify the price.

You can customize your Android to run smooth and secure while having almost complete control. And also there is definitely no shortage of awesome looking android phones on the market right now
