Reddit

reads here

Posts and comments — pseudonymous, with the subreddit as the only identity, plus search hits nobody opened.

Google for breadth, Reddit's own RSS for depth: one thread read per ~60s window, so a read budget is a time budget (ADR-0041).

Never read for Lontra. Judged by signal-scout.reddit.

Channels

Where this source's audience gathers. Most appear because module-2.channels grouped the signals by where they were said; you can add one the signals have not reached, correct one, or retire one. Nothing is ever deleted — a retirement carries a reason and the signals stay.

No channel is mapped for this source yet

Mapping reads the signals already held and groups them by where they were said, so it needs signals first — start it from the workbench. If you already know the community, add it below and it will be here before any scan runs.

Add a channel

A size or an activity figure is a measurement, so it is not typed here — a channel map measures it, and a number somebody invented looks identical to one somebody measured.

What reaches a report, and what does not

A verdict per origin — here, a channel, a subreddit, an account or a site — judged on a sample of what was actually said there, because a scout sees one candidate at a time and cannot tell that a channel has sold something every week for a month.

Excluding an origin stops its signals reaching the market validation report; downweighting one lets them through counting for less, and recognition is counted in weight, so half-weight evidence needs twice as much of itself to conclude anything. Neither deletes anything: every signal stays in the list below with its rule beside it, and the report names what it was denied and what it discounted.

judge on

The judge reads every origin this product holds signals from, not only Reddit's — it is comparing places against each other, and a judgement made against one source alone would have no yardstick.

No signals from Reddit yet, so there is nothing to judge

Queue a scan below, or ask this source a question from the workbench, and its origins appear here.

Queue a scan of Reddit

The blunt version: a list of topics, no product knowledge behind it and no précis of what is already held. Useful when you know exactly what to search for.

For a question framed by what this product actually is, use Run New Market Discovery; for one question you do not want written into the store, use Ask a source. This one writes whatever it finds.

Signals

What people actually said, in their own words, with a link and a date. An excluded or discounted one stays here with the rule that did it printed on top — nothing is hidden from this list.
