Apparently, @ManusAI thinks I am a "fake friend" when I clicked a respected YouTube educator's link to sign up. I actually know this respected YT educator and met in person a few times. That is the only reason I clicked because I respect his opinions and suggestions. I bring it up to Manus tech support and I am accused of possessing multiple free accounts. No, it's my first and only account. Never heard of @ManusAI before today. And NO, I am not appealing the suspension. They can keep the new account I tried to register as "suspended". They can keep their AI service. So many to choose from. This is the quality of their response when you reach out to them.

Based on previous years release dates, Wondershare is due to release #Filmora15 very soon. Probably going to be within the next couple of weeks.

I am getting more active reading my Linkedin feed. Am I the only one who feels that some users post too much? I find myself unfollowing some of the people I follow. It just seems like there is a competition to be in your feed every day. I'm not convinced posting so frequently on LinkedIn is a good thing.

It was a bit shocking the glut of products that brands and vendors were giving away at #vidsummit2025 . Bags, journals, meat sticks, cookies, tea leaves, and shockingly, Prime soda/energy drinks. So many free items were unwanted. I talked a few of the security people to get the drinks because there was a glut of them sitting unwanted.

Finished my first #vidsummit at #vidsummit2025 as a late-50's Gen-X creator. What an experience. My feet hurt from all the walking. I'm grateful to have met so many creators for the first time whom I've admired from afar as well as creators from different genres and backgrounds. The list is so long, I can't easily list them here.

IMPERSONATION WARNING: I've gotten 1 email & 2 phone calls using my Google Voice number & my mattcommand email address. I'm not calling or emailing anyone using either. If someone is stirring up trouble using my Google Voice number or mattcommand email address, it's not me!

Just found a little known feature of @CreativeFuelAI. It allows you to give equal love to 2nd & 3rd channels that otherwise wouldn't get w/o spending more $$. 2nd & 3rd channels don't have to be malnourished anymore. Kudos for helping smaller creators with side channels!

I signed up for the $49 deal offered by @CreativeFuelAI. It's a smoking deal. I'm impressed with several QoL improvements made based on an email I sent. So many suggestions were implemented overnight. Never met @PhilStarkovich before but appreciate his responsiveness.

WARNING! Don't register #starbucks gift cards into the app. I had 2 gift cards & got cleaned out at locations I never been. I wasn't excited about registering to begin with but was recommended by @starbucks cust svc. I was worried about this at the time. And it really happens.

. @Starbucks app is absolutely NOT secure. If you have gift cards, DON"T register them in the app. Keep them in your wallet and use them there. Called toll-free customer service. I hope they can see these bogus charges and give me replacement cards. Not registering cards again!

. @Starbucks I had gift cards that were rarely used but I was recommended by Starbucks customer service to register my gift cards a few years back. I do this and both my gift cards get ripped off at locations I've not been. Pretty pissed that I followed that crappy advice.

. @audiblesupport @audible_com My library is polluted with fake titles & I'm a new customer. This is crazy. I feel like my account is all messed up. Is Someone going to fix our accounts? I got crazy emails.

. @TaxAct is destroying the goodwill they built when they were a smaller company. #Taxact is now following in the footsteps of #Intuit and #turbotax to make hostages of their customers with 40% bundle price increase. #Taxact used to be an underdog. Not anymore! @TaxACTSupport

Having been a #TaxAct customer for over 10 years, I am totally disgusted that without notice or warning to its long-time customers, they are imposing an outrageous 40% price increase on their business bundles during the holiday season. @taxactsupport @Taxact

Wow, I've never had a #YouTuber of 180K subscribers leave such a hostile comment on a video. One would think experienced #YouTubers would think twice before doing this sort of thing.

And so the small local story the D.A. that wants to prosecute has essentially triggered the Streisand Effect making a small town issue into a nationwide Free Press & First Amendment issue. A lot more eyeballs now on both the issue and the D.A.

BEWARE: Users who adopt any version of Wondershare Filmora have to be prepared to be involuntary beta-testers and get spotty responses from customer support where English is a 2nd language. I've had bizarre experiences the last 4 years. #filmora12
