Can you promote in r/cursor?

The best way to code with AI - cursor.com

The short answer

Reply helpfully with full context and clear disclosure of your affiliation, keep the focus on solving the user's problem, use the correct flair, and avoid links or overt sales language unless clearly allowed by the thread.

What works here

  • Providing helpful answers related to Cursor or AI-assisted coding
  • Sharing your own relevant tool or project when it adds value and includes context
  • Posting feedback, bug reports, or demos with reproduction steps and Request ID when relevant

What gets posts removed

  • Direct advertising, solicitation, or posting paid products you own
  • Posting without context, low-effort content, or surveys (spam)
  • Frequent promotional posts that push you over the 10% self-promo guideline

Where this comes from

View the current official rules on Reddit

Limit self-promotion

Self-promotion is acceptable if relevant and valuable, but limited to ≤10% of Reddit activity and must include context in text posts.

Keep it relevant

Posts must be relevant to Cursor or AI-assisted coding — stray promotional content may be removed at mod discretion.

Provide context

Feedback, questions, and reports must include clear description and reproduction details — implies product posts should be substantive.

No paid content

Posting paid content you own is prohibited, restricting certain commercial messages.

No spam / Use flairs

Surveys and duplicate/excessive posting are spam; all posts must have proper flair, so promotional replies should still follow formatting rules.
