A prompt to check if Reddit software advice is outdated, with full template
investigatormaker · reddit · 2026-10-01
The author shares a paste-ready prompt for Gemini that audits each recommendation in a Reddit thread: the exact claim and source link, comment date and named product version/plan (UNKNOWN if missing), firsthand vs. repeated vs. untested, what needs rechecking today (price, features, setup, compatibility, policy), an official source with what was actually verified, and a recommendation with unresolved facts kept visible.
Key principles: keep contrary replies separate, don't treat upvotes as evidence a feature still exists, don't infer software version from comment date. Post ends with a ThreadFox product plug, but the prompt stands alone.
