@kedytcom What is your marketing channels ? Do you use IG TIKTOK ?

[Pedro Pérez @PerezHatesAI]

This is one of my TikTok accounts.

Almost 500k views with only 12 videos.

No paid ads.
No big following.
No luck.

Just understanding how organic marketing actually works.

Here’s the exact playbook:

1. Pick a niche with strong emotions behind it.

2. Don’t create content people “like”.
Create content people feel.

3. The first frame matters more than the entire video.

4. Simple slideshow formats are outperforming high effort content right now.

5. Viral hooks are predictable once you study enough content.

6. Most people post randomly.
Big accounts post systems.

7. Repeating the same format is not boring if the angle changes.

8. The algorithm rewards retention, not creativity.

9. Relatability is one of the strongest conversion tools on the internet.

10. Once you find a format that works, scale it aggressively.

11. Organic marketing is becoming more powerful than paid ads for consumer apps.

12. Going viral consistently is much more method than luck.

Most people are just one good content strategy away from changing their business completely.

@chizorommaduba What are your marketing channels ? Tiktok or ig ?

@marouane53 هدي هي حرية التعبير عندك

[Pedro Pérez @PerezHatesAI]

$2k in 28 days.

One app.
Zero paid ads.
No coding background 2 months ago.

Here’s what I learned building apps with organic content:

1. Distribution matters more than the product itself.

2. A simple app with good marketing beats an amazing app nobody sees.

3. TikTok is still the most underrated acquisition channel for apps.

4. Most people quit after posting 5 videos. The real game starts after 50.

5. You do not need to reinvent anything. You just need to solve a real problem better.

6. Your first app will probably be bad. Launch it anyway.

7. Every viral video is data. Study it. Repeat it. Improve it.

8. Building in public creates trust faster than any ad campaign.

9. Organic traffic converts insanely well when the content feels native.

10. Consistency is the closest thing to a cheat code online.

Two months ago I almost didn’t start because I thought I “wasn’t ready”.

Glad I ignored that feeling.

Why does Trustmrr only show 100 results? When I browse Trustmrr, I can only see about 100 items in the list. But when I search on Google, I find many more pages from trustmrr that don’t appear in the main list on the site. Is there a way to view the full database?

Jonathan Ross, Founder and CEO of AI chip company Groq, offers a contrarian view: AI won't destroy jobs, it will create a labour shortage.

He outlines three things that will happen because of AI:

First, massive deflationary pressure.

"This cup of coffee is going to cost less. Your housing is going to cost less. Everything is going to cost less."

He explains this will happen through robots farming coffee more efficiently and better supply chain management, meaning people will need less money.

Second, people will opt out of the economy.

"They're going to work fewer hours. They're going to work fewer days a week, and they're going to work fewer years. They're going to retire earlier because they're going to be able to support their lifestyle working less."

Third, entirely new jobs and industries will emerge.

Jonathan points to history as evidence:

"Think about 100 years ago. 98% of the workforce in the United States was in agriculture. When we were able to reduce that to 2%, we found things for those other 98% of the population to do."

He continues:

"The jobs that are going to exist 100 years from now, we can't even contemplate."

Software developers didn't exist a century ago. In another century, they won't exist either, "because everyone's going to be vibe coding."

The same applies to influencers, a career that would have been unthinkable 100 years ago but now earns people millions.

His conclusion: deflationary pressure, workforce opt-outs, and new industries we can't yet imagine will combine to create one outcome...

"We're not going to have enough people."

[Adam @AdamPOD22]

@Meraktans @lorikmor @seraleev @grok Apple doesn't accept digital banks like wise or payonner to pay Apple search ads

[Adam @AdamPOD22]

@Meraktans @lorikmor @seraleev @grok But they don't accept cards of online banks

[Adam @AdamPOD22]

@lorikmor @Meraktans @seraleev @grok Should you exist in US or is it possible to do it online ?

B2C apps are printing in 2026 so here's the full playbook:

1. Find an idea

- First choose a niche, warm up new IG account and see what ads you're being served, look out for products that solve a painful emotional problem
- Throw any apps that pique your interest into sensortower and go for ideas doing >100k mrr

2. Build MVP fast

- Minimum set of features, core functionality only

3. Distribution is the product

- You need to drive traffic to your app, try everything you can: tiktok, ig, paid ads
- 99% of your focus goes here, only 1% goes to your app (bug fixes etc.)

4. Monetize with hard paywall

- We only care about high intent users, if our app can't sell with a hard paywall then we made a mistake in the ideation phase
- Use decoy pricing - high monthly and 80% off yearly price, most users won't stay 12 months anyway

5. Optimize

- Now you have customers coming in and data you can look at
- First optimize your funnel, there are likely big dropoffs that you can easily fix
- Second optimize your retention to increase LTV, track day 7 and day 30 retention

If you can't build a successful app after reading this then I don't know what else you need

@amasad I wouldn't even call it parts of the VC community. It's just a handful of extremists who happen to work as VCs.

[Mario Saputra @mariosaputra]

I'm using Nord VPN, eventhough I set it to US, somehow Tiktok can detect it and decide that my location in UK. Any solutions to this ?

[Rony @ronyfadel]
