....the reddit CEO said "all the good people we know will do something in public service/run for office." "my wife said I should give back to city of SF some how..." "I have a big decision."
And he non-named how most start founders want the wrong thing from local politics.
I met Seibel once and he was the nicest person I ever met formally associated with the big orange YC.
It’s official, Arcana is live on Product Hunt today.
Our content-based ad platform helps AI developers earn revenue without sacrificing user experience. Privacy-first, seamless integration, developer-focused.
Try our Arcana-enabled GenAI application :hugging:demo today and experience firsthand that advertisements can actually be useful and non-intrusive!
My friend and I built Arcana (https://github.com/arcana-ad) to solve the critical monetization challenge facing GenAI developers today.
While GenAI applications are seeing explosive adoption, developers struggle with a fundamental problem: traditional ad models destroy the user experience in AI-generated content.
Our solution:
●AI-based contextual analysis that understands the intent of AI-generated content
●Seamless integration of our Codex SDK into your stack in less than 5 minutes
●Non-disruptive, native ads that feel like a natural extension of AI interactions
●A revenue-sharing model with no monthly fees for Publishers
We've already onboarded 8 publishers with 150+ advertisements in our network, and over 50 developers have scheduled integration meetings in just two weeks.
If you're building in the GenAI space and looking for sustainable revenue without compromising user experience, I'd love to connect. We're particularly interested in feedback from the HN community on our approach to privacy-first, contextual advertising.

There are such products. Outside of America whatsapp is a dominant social app but its use internally is almost mute despite being an american social app.
Tiktok america is over 50% of tiktok revenue I think that more than anything else would choke out growth world wide.
Long long time ago; youtube "staff" would manually put certain videos on the top of the front page when they started. Im sure there we're biases and prioritization of marketing dollars but at least there was human recommending it compared to poorly recorded early family guy clips. I dont know when they stopped manually adding "editors/staff" choice videos but I recall some of my favorite early youtubers like CGPGgrey claim that recommendation built the career.
