What its rules say about promotion
Self Promotion / Vendors / Personal Affiliation Disclaimer
Self promotion goes in the weekly self promotion thread. Any personal affiliation with a product or tool must be fully disclosed at the top of a post or comment. We won't mind you promoting projects you're part of but if this is your sole purpose in this subreddit we don't want it. Consider buying advertisements if you want to promote your project or products. Note that posts should be as self-contained as possible and not link to external blogs. This is not a space to funnel traffic.
Low-Effort / Low-Quality Content
Posts that are low-effort, spammy, repetitive, or add little value to discussion are not allowed. For example (but is not limited to) AI content, prompt dumps, and stealth marketing. All content must be original thought, show context, or have meaningful contribution. Memes allowed only on meme-Mondays This rule is enforced at moderator discretion. If your post or comment reads like it was primarily generated by LLMs there is a high chance it will be removed under this rule.

This includes market surveys, vendor poll requests, academic surveys, product validation requests, etc. Surveys without prior approval will be removed. Academic research requires affiliation with an accredited institution and all research must be conducted under a professor with approval from a recognized ethics review body and requires a data protection statement specifying jurisdiction (GDPR etc.) - No shortened URLs

Heated discussions are fine, personal attacks are not.
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- Unpublished minimums.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.
