What this page is
This page quotes r/lds's rules as ThreadFox read them on 2026-10-08. 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/lds'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.

What its rules say about promotion
Content Should be Faithful
***tl;dr: If you're critical of the Church or its leaders here or anywhere else on Reddit, please find a different subreddit to participate in.*** All participation should be faithful and respectful toward Latter-day Saints and their beliefs. Dissenting views are more appropriate in other subreddits. Participation should reflect a genuine attempt to promote faithfulness in the LDS church. If this is not one of your core values, please have enough integrity to withhold participation.
All 8 rules of r/lds
- Content Should be Faithful
***tl;dr: If you're critical of the Church or its leaders here or anywhere else on Reddit, please find a different subreddit to participate in.*** All participation should be faithful and respectful toward Latter-day Saints and their beliefs. Dissenting views are more appropriate in other subreddits. Participation should reflect a genuine attempt to promote faithfulness in the LDS church. If this is not one of your core values, please have enough integrity to withhold participation. - No inappropriate language
No foul language or NSFW content that is not appropriate for all age groups. - No Politics
All content with clear political agendas will be removed and should be discussed in more appropriate subreddits. - Use non-participation links
Honor reddit's non-participation guidelines when linking to other subreddits. Please don't link to subs that are critical of the Church. - Reporting
If any post or comment violates the policies of the community, or if any discussion becomes contentious, please press the "report" button on the offending post or comment(s) so that the moderators can look into it. Though we will err, let's err on the side of maintaining high standards. - Gray area
No set of policies is perfect and tough calls often have to be made. Moderators reserve the right to have final say on anything that falls into gray area. - Avoid low effort posts
Posts with just pictures of things like a temple, your family, your bishop or a ward activity belong on Instagram, Facebook, or X, or possibly another subreddit. - Follow the Church's Handbook
Don't give advice that is contrary to the Church's Handbook. This especially applies to the topic of firearms, which will get you banned.
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.
