Please don't ask mods for product invite codes or general questions that can be answered by the community. - Duck Images
Since this is a subReddit for the discussion of the DuckDuckGo search engine and it's related apps and extension, we ask the you not use this subReddit for posting images/videos of ducks or duck related items. Instead, please use /r/duck . - Duplicate Post

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- Unpublished minimums.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.
