What its rules say about promotion
VPN Discussions
VPN discussions are allowed in general terms, but talking about using them in ways that break Apple’s terms or warranties is not permitted. Promotion of specific VPN providers is also not allowed, with the exception of iCloud Private Relay.
All 14 rules of r/AppleMusic
- Be Respectful
Respect is the foundation of this community. Remember the human on the other side of the screen and keep your interactions civil. Harassment, hate speech, flame wars, and personal attacks will not be tolerated. Disagreements are welcome as long as they remain constructive and not hostile. - No Piracy, Account Sharing, Code Begging, or Sharing Family Plan Slots
Piracy, account sharing, and monetary transactions are strictly prohibited. Posts or comments asking for iTunes gift cards, family plan slots, or other subscription sharing will be removed. Apple Music subscriptions must be obtained legally. Failure to comply with this rule may result in a permanent ban. - Keep Posts Relevant
Posts must remain relevant to Apple Music or music discussion that directly ties back to the service. General music discussion is welcome in the comments of relevant posts, but standalone threads that are off-topic belong elsewhere. Please read [our wiki](/r/AppleMusic/wiki/discussionguidelines) for more information. - VPN Discussions
VPN discussions are allowed in general terms, but talking about using them in ways that break Apple’s terms or warranties is not permitted. Promotion of specific VPN providers is also not allowed, with the exception of iCloud Private Relay. - No Playlist Posts / Replay posts
Playlist sharing is not permitted here. For that, please use r/ApplePlaylists or our weekly megathreads. Replay sharing is also restricted to dedicated megathreads posted after Replay becomes available. - Domain Whitelist / Social Media Links
Posts may only use URLs that are on our [Domain Whitelist](https://www.reddit.com/r/AppleMusic/wiki/domainwhitelist). See the linked wiki page for more information. Links to sites that spread misinformation are not permitted, such as twitter (x.com) links or links to other social media services are not permitted, with the exception of YouTube video links. - Guidelines for Developers, Code-Sharing / Giveaway Posts, & Members of the Press
Please see [our wiki](https://www.reddit.com/r/applemusic/w/sharingguidelines) to read our guidelines for developers, code-sharing / giveaway posts, and members of the press. Developers, giveaway hosts, code-sharing users, and members of the press must follow the guidelines outlined in the wiki. Failure to do so may result in removal of posts or further action. - Constructive Feedback Only / Hostility
Constructive criticism of Apple Music is welcome, but needless bashing or repetitive hostility toward the service will be removed. We encourage civil feedback, not aggressive complaining that disrupts the community. - Tech Support Requirements
If you are posting about technical issues, you must include key details: your device and model, OS version, app version (if applicable), region, and steps you have already taken to troubleshoot. Posts missing this information may be removed. - No Spotify vs. Apple Music Threads
Posts comparing Spotify and Apple Music or asking which service to choose are not allowed as standalone threads. These belong in the recurring megathreads dedicated to service comparisons. - Follow the Reddit Content Policy
https://redditinc.com/policies/reddit-rules - Using a new account to break any community rule.
Using any account created within the last 90 days or an account that has little to no online history to break any rule will result in a ban without warning - Free trial posts
All free trial related questions must go in the free trial megathread. All other posts about free trials will be deleted. **Begging for free trial codes will result in a permanent ban. No exceptions.** - Modmail Conduct
Modmail is for official r/AppleMusic business only. No Tech Support: We don’t work for Reddit or Apple. Do not ask about the algorithm, why content is in your feed, or how to use the site. Use r/Help for Reddit-related issues. Scope: We are here to moderate, not teach "Reddit 101." Zero Tolerance: Abuse or harassment directed at the team is strictly prohibited. ANY violation of this rule will result in an immediate and permanent ban from r/AppleMusic.
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.
