Self-promotion bannedNo links

Can you promote here?

The rules prohibit promoting your own product here. You can still be genuinely useful in comments (which builds the account standing every other community checks), but any promotional post or link is likely to be removed and can earn a community ban.

From the rules · Fundraisers allowed only with a credible news source and must go directly to the charity; any post that could financially benefit you is disallowed.

Links are prohibited in posts or comments. Name things in plain text; interested readers will search.

What this community rewards

Dominant post formats: discussion, question, news

Headline: clear and empathetic (e.g., “Need advice: Mom’s memory declining”). Write in first person, short-to-medium length (one to a few short paragraphs), calm and supportive tone. Posts that share caregiving questions, personal updates, or vetted news sources get upvotes; sensational/cure claims or anything that looks like an ad or fundraiser gets removed.

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/alzheimers'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.
