Can you promote in r/informatik?
Deutschsprachiges Subreddit für Informatik und das Informatik-Studium. This Sub is the German-Language equivalent of /r/compsci
The short answer
Answer technical questions helpfully without promotion; if you want to post about a product/event, contact the mods first and disclose any affiliation.
What works here
- Answering technical or academic informatics questions
- Posting relevant links with clear descriptions and relevance
- Advertising or event promotion after prior mod approval
What gets posts removed
- Unsolicited product promotion, recruitment, or lead-generation posts
- Posting spammy or low-effort promotional content
- Links or adverts without explanation or mod permission
Where this comes from
View the current official rules on RedditAdvertising requires mod approval
Rule explicitly states 'Werbung nur nach Absprache' (advertising only after consulting mods), so promotional posts need prior permission.
Spam forbidden
Spam posts are removed without comment — unsolicited commercial posts risk deletion.
Focus on informatics topics
Sub is for informatics study/research/professional topics, not general tech support or consumer hardware recommendations.
Links need context
Links to articles must include a short description and justification of relevance — expect transparency and relevance requirements for shared resources.
