What this page is
This page quotes r/languagelearning's rules as ThreadFox read them on 2026-09-26. The quoted text is the community's; the verdict above is our reading of it. Conditions often decide whether a post fits (a required thread, flair, posting day, account age or karma), and r/languagelearning's current rules on Reddit always win over this page.
Free, for a specific product: a researched Reddit plan by email (communities whose rules fit your post, quoted and dated), or ThreadFox Lite, read-only tools an AI assistant can use to read a community's current rules itself, through your own Chrome (Claude Code: claude mcp add threadfox-lite -- uvx threadfox-lite). For an assistant that also writes and posts within each community's rules, the ThreadFox kit is $49 once.
Want to post here? Get ThreadFox ($49): your AI (Claude Desktop, Claude Code or Codex) reads a community's current rules, writes one post that fits and posts once from your own Chrome. No Claude? We'll post for you ($99 per 30-day campaign). Free: a Reddit launch plan for your product, ThreadFox Lite or the posting checklist by email.

What its rules say about AI and bots
Do not post disallowed content
These include: posts focused on one language, language exchange requests, videos similar to "polyglot speaks 19 languages", language tutors, homework help, achievement posts, pictures of resources, and AI language learning tools or chatbots.
All 9 rules of r/languagelearning
- Be mature and respectful to others
We're all here in our own time, so please help us enjoy that time by keeping discussion civil, this includes using insults or writing derogatory comments. We don't remove posts simply for being brash. - Read the wiki and FAQ before asking basic questions
For cases where user makes a vague and unhelpful "What language should I learn?" post or asks an already-answered question. FAQ are usually removed. - Do not submit self-owned content without permission
Users may not post self-owned content (apps, videos, blogs, etc) without permission. Please see our [rules for promotion](https://www.reddit.com/r/languagelearning/wiki/rules_for_promotion/ for more information. - Do not post disallowed content
These include: posts focused on one language, language exchange requests, videos similar to "polyglot speaks 19 languages", language tutors, homework help, achievement posts, pictures of resources, and AI language learning tools or chatbots. - Do not focus your post on a specific language
Posts about popular languages belong in their subs. Posts about rarer languages are usually okay. Posts about learning techniques/schedules are sometimes okay--check the longer rules. - Do not post low-quality content
We only remove very low-quality posts. Please only use this for incoherent ranting, tasteless or unfunny attempts at humour, and boring translation requests. - Do not generalise large groups of people
This includes spreading conspiracy theories or isolated or misleading statistics regarding groups of people. - Do not target individuals with threats or slander
This means targeting users with threats, slander or spurious accusations - Post requests for resources in the dedicated subreddit
For example, requests for French textbook recommendations go in /r/french
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.
Let your AI read the rules before it posts.
ThreadFox reads a community's current rules, writes a post that fits them, posts once with Reddit's Brand affiliate tag and checks it stayed up. The free ThreadFox Lite reads rules too.
