All 6 rules of r/ProductivityHQ
- Self-promo is allowed but STEALTH promo is not!
If you are promoting an app/website/resource in any way shape or form you MUST use the Dev Self-Promo flair or you will be permanently banned from the sub. Additionally, you can only self-promo once per week. - Topic + flair rules

SFW content only. - No hate or harassment

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- Unpublished minimums.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.
