I just read about this here: https://www.theregister.com/ai-and-ml/2026/11/03/british-fintech-revolut-slashes-ai-coding-costs-10x-by-cutting-out-claude-and-going-self-hosted/5307345 Revolut says that in less than a year it's managed to slash its AI coding inference costs by roughly 90 percent...

I always wanted to know how bot detection actually works. Not "AdScore says 62% invalid", but why. What is a bot, really? What kinds exist? How do they make money? And what does a bot do differently from a real person on my landing page? If you've read my AdScore guide, you know I run AdScore...

Most trackers now show some kind of bot % in their reports. Skro has Bot Visits, MaxConv has Suspicious %, and BeMob has a whole set of Suspicious columns you can buy as add-ons. And I always use Adscore on my campaigns, so I kept seeing two different bot numbers for the same traffic. One from...

Noticed this in chat: So went on to check what is going on, and saw this: The Chrome notification prompt changed on Android. More than ever, use the custom modal. From Chrome 155, which starts rolling out on October 6, 2026, the prompt leaves the middle of the screen and becomes a discreet...

Noticed that no one posted about this... Brazil's Lula bans online gambling ahead of presidential election Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has announced a ban on online gambling, just days before an election in which he is seeking a fourth term as the country's leader. Punters...

I was pretty impressed with the work Luke did with his zonedatabase.com project, so I wanted to do something similar, but for Optee. It’s been in the works for some time now, but not yet ready to be published. So, I wanted to give you a sneak peak first. I’m not sure if there is a single...

Well this might be interesting :) Google is piloting a program that pays participating sites when their content contributes to answers in the Gemini app, AI Overviews, and AI Mode. According to Digiday, Google confirmed the pilot as early stage, and at least dozens of publishers have been...

Hi, I've noticed Qwen-Image-2.1 was released a few days ago. Anyone playing with it? People on Reddit are showing some results they got, looks pretty interesting: transparent images: up to 10 reference images Here is the full discussion: From what is see it's non commercial only...

I've stumbled upon this article recently: https://www.socialmediatoday.com/news/facebook-pages-get-charged-for-link-posts/830743/ It seems that some accounts are now being limited to two link posts on Facebook per month, unless they pay for a Meta One subscription. Can you believe this? Did...

In my previous guide, I showed how to set up a local AI model with Ollama and Code Ollama. Everything happened in a terminal window. A few of you reached out to me via private message and asked whether they really had to type commands in the terminal to talk to an AI? No, you don’t. There are...

Anthropic just announced Claude Fable 5.1 and Claude Mythos 5.1 are out! As expected, it's beeter then Opus 5. But it's also pretty expensive. I use Opus 5 on most of project I work on right now. What do you use?

There has been a lot of talk about AI recently, mostly about cloud AI models like ChatGPT, Claude (code) etc. A few months ago Luke even wrote a guide on how to setup Hermes agent on a VPS server: https://afflift.com/f/threads/how-to-setup-a-hermes-agent-for-affiliate-marketing.16510/ In this...

A while ago I wrote a guide on how to host your landing pages on Cloudflare Pages, for free, with unlimited bandwidth: https://afflift.com/f/threads/how-to-host-your-landing-pages-without-a-server-for-free-unlimited-traffic-and-global-coverage.10527/ I still host everything there. But there's...

Last month, I published a case study with PopAds traffic and Propush constructor. This month, I wanted to share my results with the same setup, but on PopCash. As with PopAds, I didn’t have high expectations from pops here on PopCash, because I was using a more complex Clickbox constructor...

I had a few members reach out to me asking about the Propush API delays and how much does it take for data to settle. I didn’t know exactly, so I’ve set up a simple test to compare revenue in tracker and revenue in Propush. I know @Anth and @L1Ght are a bit annoyed with delays, and are using...

It seems that my last test with ProPush generated a lot of interest from members, so I’ve decided to test the same Constructor this time with different traffic source and different ad format. I’ve picked PopAds pops. Honestly, I didn’t have high expectations from pops here, because I expected...

A few months ago ProPush introduced Constructor, and I’ve seen a few members using it already, like Anth, Desha and Luke. So I wanted to see what Constructor is all about, and test it on my own. I’ve ran this test for 26 days, and here are… My results Traffic source: RollerAds Push Country...

TrafficSaviour joined affLift a few weeks ago, and since their tool looks really interesting, I’ve decided to test it! TrafficSaviour is a cloaking tool, but can also be used as an anti-fraud tool. If you remember, I wrote a guide for Adscore in 2025. that got a lot engagement from members...
