You must mark NSFW photo submissions with the NSFW tag, or add 'NSFW' to the post title.

Pornography is not allowed. - No AI generated content
No AI generated content is allowed. - Sexualised commentary on NSFW posts not allowed
You can comment on NSFW posts about technique, colour, composition etc. but any sexualised commentary about the model’s anatomy is a bannable offence. No one cares in the slightest what you think about the model’s body, or what you fantasise doing to the model. Grow up and be a respectable citizen in this subreddit, and keep both hands on the keyboard. - Political discourse is not allowed in /r/nikon
Photos that are political in nature are allowed in /r/nikon. However, any commentary on the post *must* be about the merits or technical information about the photo, and **not** be political commentary about the subject of the photo.
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- Unpublished minimums.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.
