Subreddit rules check
r/discordapp
Can you promote here?
The rules clearly permit sharing your own product or project. Follow the format norms below, disclose that it is yours, and lead with substance: allowed is not the same as welcomed for low-effort pitches.
From the rules · Server self-promotion = immediate permaban; advertising personal bots/projects is allowed only sparingly (must not dominate your account history) and avoid calls-to-action—ask mods if unsure.
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, question, news
Headline: short, specific, include Discord context (version/bot name/feature). Use first-person for support/help posts; third-person OK for news. Keep body concise but technical (one medium-length paragraph + logs or steps if troubleshooting). Tone: helpful, factual, non-salesy. What gets upvoted: bug reports, clear how-tos, thoughtful discussion, useful news. What gets removed: server invites, blatant ads, calls-to-action, low-effort memes or screenshots.
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/discordapp'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.
