Can you promote here?

Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.

From the rules · All posts must request a specific legal, ethical, nonviolent 10-minute action and not be link-only; no “just sign here” petitions and posts must focus on group issues.

Links

The rules clearly allow links. A plain-text mention still often outperforms a URL from a young account.

What this community rewards

Dominant post formats: discussion, guide, data

Headline = explicit 10-minute ask: start with bracketed action e.g. “[ACTION] 10-min: Email Council re: X — template below.” Write in first person plural/neutral, 1–4 short paragraphs plus a clear one-sentence ask, an editable script/template, and a brief accountability/source section. Tone: practical, factual, high-transparency. Upvoted: concise, actionable posts with sources and a reusable script; Removed: link-only posts, individual-focused pleas, petitions with only “sign here.”

Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.

Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/advocacy's rules page before posting anything that matters.

Thread Otter checks this before every send

These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
