What its rules say about promotion
Blatant self promotion and/or requests for feedback on your tracks are not permitted submissions.
Feedback requests are encouraged in the relevant weekly threads. In regards to self promo, do not be a brand with a reddit account, be a redditor with a brand. If your post history is mostly your content posted multiple places and mostly your comments on your own videos, we probably aren't interested. Try r/madewithableton instead.
Do not buy, sell, trade, or beg for stuff in a post.
[Buy/Sell/Trade/Beg for Ableton stuff here, including software and hardware, in this thread and this thread only](https://redd.it/minb9j). Lite is not free, do not ask for it.
No selling
If you are selling something in your post it will be removed. If you are trying to circumvent this rule with burner accounts, you'll be banned.
No AI
Do not post promoting LLMs or things of the related sort. If you had to enter a prompt to get what you're about to post, then keep it.

What the written rules don't show
- Unpublished minimums. Many communities remove posts from new or low-karma accounts through AutoModerator settings that are not on the rules page, often before a moderator sees them.
- Reddit's own filters. Reddit's site-wide spam filters can remove posts from accounts that mostly share links to their own site, in any community.
- The community's norms. Many communities see themselves as peers, not an audience: post where you already take part, and make the post worth reading without the link.
