What its rules say about promotion
Hate speech, extremism, or nationalism
We have zero tolerance for content that promotes hatred, extreme ideologies, or aggressive nationalism. This includes but is not limited to content that advocates violence or superiority based on identity, promotes extremist viewpoints, or encourages divisive nationalist rhetoric that demeans other groups. We strive to maintain a community where all members feel welcome and safe.
Illegal Content or Harmful Discussions
Any content that violates local, national, or international laws is strictly forbidden. This includes sharing illegal materials, promoting illegal activities, or discussions that could create legal liability for the community. We also prohibit content that, while technically legal, could reasonably lead to harm if misused. Members are expected to exercise good judgment and consider the potential consequences of their posts.
Spam, Self-Promotion, and Advertising
Commercial promotion, repetitive posting, referral links, and excessive self-promotion are not allowed. While sharing relevant original content is welcome, it should be balanced with other community participation. Any promotional content must be clearly labeled and follow our specific self-promotion guidelines. Bot activity and automated posting are prohibited.
Misinformation and Unverified Claims
Deliberately spreading false information, conspiracy theories, or unverified claims that could cause harm is prohibited. Posts making significant claims should include credible sources. While we encourage open discussion, we prioritize factual accuracy and may remove content that promotes dangerous misinformation, particularly regarding public health, safety, or civic processes.

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- Unpublished minimums.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.
