... used an AI assistant to write a spot trading bot with stop-loss logic. The backtesting looked amazing.. The minute I deployed it live the exchange banned my API key. The AI had built a polling loop that hammered the endpoint 50 times a second of using WebSockets. It wrote logic but completely ignored infrastructure reality. Anyone else learn the way that LLMs don't understand rate limits ...

... looking for a quick way to get robbed and banned without any explanation, Hyperagent is the perfect choice for you. I am an ordinary entrepreneur running a small Telegram advertising analytics project. I am not a developer or programmer, and I have zero technical hacking skills. On September 14, 2026, I paid $20 for a monthly subscription (Invoice #ILLFFP-00001). All I needed was an AI assistant to help me sort open public links and format basic data. Less than ... ... violate a single rule. I was simply asking the AI questions about open channel links. Nobody is safe on this platform. Absolutely nobody. You can be the most honest, paying customer doing basic tasks, and they will still ban

... naturally One follow-up max, then let it go On platforms: X is decent if you engage publicly first, LinkedIn works for B2B but needs to be hyper-targeted, Reddit can backfire if it reads as spam (i got banned on 5 accs lol). The one I'm most curious about right now is YouTube, I barely use it myself, but unlike a DM that disappears, a video keeps bringing people in months later, but's it's very time ... ... consuming. Still figuring this out though. How do you get your first users without it feeling creepy or spammy? What platform actually worked, and what made your message land?

... time to finish the gallery. Does the day of the week still matter much in your experience, or is that mostly a myth now? Comment from (@new_user___26020267b63ea4605738cbb): Launching BillFast today has reinforced the ready enough vs. finished distinction for me: the core flow (create an invoice, preview it, download a client-ready PDF) is narrow and usable, while feedback is now surfacing the edges currencies, taxes, templates, and payment instructions. For a small product, that feels ... ... newer but indie-focused. one thing that matters for your ban

... here. I got tired of juggling three apps for music one for my MP3s, YouTube for discovery, another for playlists. So I built Youtube-MP3-Mobile: one app, local library + YouTube search/streaming, mixed playlists, no download hacks that get banned in a month (uses the official YouTube API). What's in v1: Local player with EQ + background playback Search YouTube by name or link Mixed playlists (local + streaming) Still early, so all feedback welcome bugs, feature ideas, brutal honesty ...

... More people mentioned this angle, so I need to put it into the practice! Comment from Nika(@busmark_w_nika): @gfazioli  The worst thing is that if I were yelling too much on LinkedIn about LinkedIn, they can ban me again, and I will lose my main distributing channel :D Comment from Blake at Vassant(@blakeatvassant): @suzychase  This is a great approach. I have been seeing low interest in community engagement, but I focus on the product more ... ... think "salesy" isn't really about word choice it's about whether you're answering something someone asked, or interrupting something they weren't asking about. Curious if others have found the line shifts once you have actual users vs

... revisit what we have done. (And what we will push into Q4.) :D As for me, here is my scope for the upcoming Q3: Work goals: Primarily focus on building my LinkedIn plugin that helps prevent people from being banned, so: mention it at least one post per week on LinkedIn publish the 1st MVP (non-paid version) in Chrome Store + create visual assets and descriptions invite 10 active LinkedIn users to test it and get feedback I am learning ... ... bursts Take marketing as seriously as building.

... refer to how the UK banned social media for teenagers under 16. The funny moment was when the BBC News moderator asked the student : How much screen time does she have on the weekend (9 hours) and What will she do with her free time now? (Staring at the wall.)

... experience with marketing such a tool, do you have any suggestions on what worked best for you? Comment from Marcelo Arias(@marcelo_earth): @busmark_w_nika  I'm planning to use LinkedIn more, and I didn't know ban was a thing to prevent (like, how many posts/comments/messages or activity you have to do to reach those). But yes, I would think it would be popular in GitHub.

... think this is a better way than just spending cash on ads. So, then I manually tried to find conversations where my ICP was talking so I posted in wrong threads, got flagged as spam, and eventually got banned. It fucking felt impossible. Every founder knows this pain: the product is ready, but no one knows that it exists, and you don't know where to find them. That's a problem that everyone faces. Most founders think distribution equals ...

... consumption logic, and refunds for every app. 2. For 5 years , goods have been stolen from the office. There is no available service that automatically analyzes camera footage and sends alerts about suspicious activity. 3. Risk of a LinkedIn ban due to false positive bot detection.

... simply write 61 words manually in 1 minute, so I can potentially create 300 to 360 comments with an average length of 10 words in one hour. LinkedIn has been doing this a lot lately. It bans for: number of visits to other profiles number of comments number of likes number of messages number of connection requests sent, etc. My only solution is to tame my daily/weekly activity. Have you faced this too? How did you manage to solve ... ... more than 200 connection requests per week That would work.

... internet is now populated, in meaningful part, by sophisticated AI agents and automated accounts. We knew bots were part of the landscape, but we didn't appreciate the scale, sophistication, or speed at which they'd find us. We banned tens of thousands of accounts. We deployed internal tooling and industry-standard external vendors. None of it was enough. When you can't trust that the votes, the comments, and the engagement you're seeing are real, you've lost ... ... lack of scalability and networks affects...the good old Catch-22.

... Last week, one of our users got temporarily banned from a social media platform. Not because she posted spam. Not because she broke rules. Because she automated her posting workflow so aggressively that the platform thought she was a bot. She was using Happycapy to post every 2 hours across multiple platforms. Content generation, scheduling, posting, all on autopilot. The system worked so well she forgot to check if platforms had rate limits. One platform said "nope" and banned

... favour of banning social media for users under 16? Recently, there has been a surge of laws and restrictions targeting social media platforms for young users. Personally, I ve been on social media since I was 11. I can see how much time I wasted on Facebook playing games, but at the same time, I met new people (I went to photoshoots, joined different interest groups, and more). However!! I also have to highlight the things that were not okay ... ... most, because one day I might regret it.
