Subreddit rules check
r/electronics
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 · Flair is required; ‘Project’ posts must include full non‑commercial build instructions and commercial/sponsored content or links will be removed (use r/ElectronicsList for offers).
Links
Links are prohibited in posts or comments. Name things in plain text; interested readers will search.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: showcase, guide, news
Headline: short, descriptive—often first‑person for builds (e.g., “I made a 1kW lab bench PSU”). Use first person for OC/project posts; include high‑quality photos, schematics, BOM, test results and source/firmware links (non‑commercial). Typical length: image gallery + a detailed build log or concise technical writeup (several hundred words). Tone: professional, technical, helpful. Upvoted: original DIY projects, clear schematics and measurements. Removed: promotional/product announcements or commercial links. Add appropriate flair.
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/electronics'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.
