What its rules say about promotion
Limit self-promotion
Sharing your own content is acceptable if relevant and valuable. No more than 10% of your activity across Reddit should be self-promotional. Context must be provided in text posts. No promoting competing products in bad faith or spamming competitor content.
No paid content
Do not post paid content that you yourself own. Do not resell other people's intellectual property. No advertising the sale or exchange of accounts, credentials, or products. This is a forum, not a shopping site.
All 11 rules of r/cursor
- Keep it relevant
Keep content relevant to Cursor or AI-assisted coding. Follow Reddiquette and be mindful that mod discretion applies. General AI coding discussions are fine if they relate to Cursor's use or development. Don't create chaotic or divisive posts unrelated to Cursor. - Be civil
Maintain a welcoming and inclusive community. No personal attacks, harassment, hate speech, or trolling. Don't engage in bad faith arguments, baiting, or provocative behavior. If your posting history suggests rabble-rousing, especially with limited history here, we will use our discretion. - No rants
Complaints and criticism are welcomed and encouraged when specific and constructive in where Cursor could improve. Explain what's not working with clear feedback. Vague rants without substance will be removed. Please phrase your feedback in a solution-oriented manner. Posts that consist solely of low-quality content will be removed. - No misinformation
Don't spread false or misleading claims about Cursor or competitors. Claims about functionality, pricing, or performance should be accurate and verifiable. - Provide context
For feedback, questions and bug reports please include: a clear description, steps to reproduce (if possible), screenshots/recordings when possible, and a Request ID if privacy mode is disabled. For feedback, be specific about what aspects are working or not working. The mod team may create megathreads for major updates. - Limit self-promotion
Sharing your own content is acceptable if relevant and valuable. No more than 10% of your activity across Reddit should be self-promotional. Context must be provided in text posts. No promoting competing products in bad faith or spamming competitor content. - No paid content
Do not post paid content that you yourself own. Do not resell other people's intellectual property. No advertising the sale or exchange of accounts, credentials, or products. This is a forum, not a shopping site. - No spam
Before posting, check if your topic has been recently discussed. Duplicate posts may be removed. No excessive posting of similar content. Surveys count as spam. Use the search feature to avoid repeating topics that were recently discussed. - Write quality titles
Post titles should clearly reflect content without being misleading or inflammatory. No one-word, sensationalized, clickbait, all-caps, or excessive punctuation in titles. Low-effort titles will be removed. - Use flairs
All posts must have the appropriate flair. If you flair your post as "feedback," include details about what aspects you want feedback on. Failing to do this may result in your post being considered spam. - No slop
No AI generated content or low effort posting. This includes content created using AI tools without substantial human input, posts lacking meaningful context or discussion value, quick screenshots with minimal explanation, karma-farming, reposts of recent content, and submissions that don't demonstrate basic effort or thoughtfulness. We value quality contributions that enhance our community through original insights and well-crafted discussions.
