Subreddit rules check
r/frenchtech
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 · Post in French; be transparent and concrete (links/demos/stats) — that style consistently gets traction.
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: showcase, discussion, news
Headline: short, first-person (“J’ai créé…”, “Je lance…”, “J’ai fait…”). Body: 1–4 short paragraphs explaining the problem you solved, concrete features/metrics, tech stack or data, and a clear ask (feedback, users, partenaires). Tone: pragmatic, modest, no-BS. Include a working link/demos and screenshots; posts with specific details and transparency get upvoted, vague marketing does poorly.
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 October 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/frenchtech'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.
