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 · If you’re selling or affiliated, include a clear 'Creator disclosure' (top posts show transparency and product photos).
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, story, news
Headline = product name + one-line hook (e.g., what it is or why it’s cool). Write short, upbeat, casual titles; body/OP is concise and visual. If you’re the maker/seller, explicitly disclose affiliation. High-quality photos, clear specs/links and ethical/unique backstories get upvoted; low-effort or spammy ads get removed or ignored.
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 September 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/shutupandtakemymoney'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.
