Subreddit rules check

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 · No clear subreddit rules shown — many useful local tools/posts with links are present, so when posting a product/service ask the mods first or make it explicitly free/local and clearly helpful.
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, news, question
Headline: short, location-first (e.g. "Ouchy ce matin", "Hausse des vols Ouest lausannois"). Write in first person or direct question; bilingual (FR/EN) is common. Typical posts are short titles with a helpful excerpt or links; photos, local news, calls for witnesses, and practical guides get upvoted. Be factual, local, and useful; blatant ads or irrelevant promos risk removal or moderator attention.
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/lausanne'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.
