What gets removed in r/indonesia
Self-promotion
r/indonesia bans self-promo outright. Product links, launch posts, and thinly framed "feedback" posts are removed.
Low karma or a new account
r/indonesia publishes no karma or age minimum, but unpublished account filters are common at this size. New accounts should comment before posting.

r/indonesia posting questions
Can I post links in r/indonesia?
Yes. r/indonesia accepts link posts. The usual sitewide traps still apply: URL shorteners, affiliate parameters, and brand-new domains get filtered fast, and promotional links are judged against the sub's self-promo rules. One clean link to the original source is the safe pattern.
Does r/indonesia require karma to post?
r/indonesia does not publish a karma minimum. That does not mean there is none: many subreddits enforce unpublished karma and account-age filters that remove posts silently. If your account is new or has little karma, that is the first thing to rule out when a post disappears.
Can you self-promote in r/indonesia?
No. r/indonesia bans self-promotion outright: product links, launch posts, and thinly framed feedback posts get removed. The sub's own wording: "No self-promotion/advertisement: Advertisement includes, but not limited to: promoting YouTube channel or Discord room invitation, SEO posts". If you want eyes on your project, contribute first and look for communities with a promo lane.
Is r/indonesia strict?
Moderate, by our estimate (24/100 on our strictness scale, from its measured removal rate, 9 rules, and its stated gates). About 1% of recent posts disappeared within a day in our sample. Strictness is about enforcement, not hostility: a strict sub is predictable if you follow its rules.
What is the best time to post in r/indonesia?
Based on our sample of recent and top posts, activity and scores peak around Saturday 6am UTC and Wednesday 2am UTC. Treat this as a starting point, not a guarantee: a post that breaks a rule gets removed at any hour. The heatmap on this page converts these windows to your local time.
Why do posts get removed in r/indonesia?
The most common reasons are self-promotion violations, plus the layers every subreddit has: Reddit's sitewide spam filter, unpublished AutoMod rules, and account-level gates like karma and age. In our recent sample, roughly 1% of r/indonesia posts disappeared within about a day of going up. Many removals are silent, so checking your draft first beats finding out after.
