  2. No reposts
    You've all seen the state of r/ProgrammerHumor. We don't want this subreddit to turn into a cemetery of stolen memes.
  3. No links
    Posts must be meme images, jokes or videos. No links to other websites (this includes YouTube-videos)
  4. No "X language bad Y language good" memes
    Haha, this one language does not have this feature that the other language does. Very funny.
  5. Reaction images must be relevant to text.
    No more images of cats with programming captions. That is very low-effort.
  6. Posts can not be puns
    Who thinks "programmer would be fat if they went to snackoverflow instead of stackoverflow" is even remotely funny? Seriously. It's not.
  7. No AI-generated posts or comments unless declared
