Estimated survival rate
98%
of 211 recent r/nocode posts we sampled were still publicly visible about a day later.
How this is measured
Estimate. We sample recent public posts and check again about 18 hours later to count how many are still publicly visible. Posts removed at the moment of submission never become publicly visible at all, so the true removal rate is at least this high. Last sampled Sep 5, 2026.
r/nocode rules: what actually gets removed
Each rule below is paired with the way it is most likely enforced. Where the rules state a number, we quote it. Where they do not, we say so instead of guessing.
1.Promoted Posts/Comments
Enforced automaticallyIf you are posting or commenting about a new tool/resource and you must disclose your connection to said tool/resource or risk your post/comment being deleted. Repeated violations will result in us taking the appropriate action. As we build the no-code/low-code community, obviously this will involve a lot of companies and innovators coming onto our forum to discuss their products, we just want people to be forthcoming about said connection. Please use the appropriate "Promoted" flair on posts.
2.Flair
Enforced automaticallyIf you are from a company, you are more than welcome to add to the discussion and make posts here. However, you will need to add your own flair that indicates which company you are representing so that everyone can place your posts and comments in the appropriate context.
3.Product Launch Outside of Designated Launch Post
Enforcement variesAll product launch posts should be made on the monthly product launch post.
4.Value-Add Post
Enforcement variesPromoting your own products is allowed, but the post must be first and foremost a value-add post for the community.
5.Undisclosed Affiliate Link
Enforcement variesUsing an affiliate link without disclosing will result in the entire post/comment being removed.
r/nocode does not publish karma or account-age minimums in its rules. Subreddits often enforce unpublished filters on top of what they write down, which is why posts from new accounts can vanish without a message here.
Can you self-promote in r/nocode?
Only in the designated thread. r/nocode restricts promotion to monthly product launch post; a standalone promo post gets removed. The sub's own wording: "All product launch posts should be made on the monthly product launch post.". Post your promo there and keep regular posts value-first.

What gets removed in r/nocode
Self-promo outside the designated thread
Promotion is only allowed in monthly product launch post. A standalone promo post gets removed.
Low karma or a new account
r/nocode publishes no karma or age minimum, but unpublished account filters are common at this size. New accounts should comment before posting.
Reddit's sitewide spam filter
A separate layer before the subreddit ever sees your post. New accounts posting links, URL shorteners, and repeated domains are its favorite targets. Removals are instant and silent.
A shadowbanned account
If the account itself is shadowbanned, every post looks live to you and invisible to everyone else, in any subreddit.

r/nocode posting questions
Can I post links in r/nocode?
Yes. r/nocode 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/nocode require karma to post?
r/nocode 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/nocode?
Only in the designated thread. r/nocode restricts promotion to monthly product launch post; a standalone promo post gets removed. The sub's own wording: "All product launch posts should be made on the monthly product launch post.". Post your promo there and keep regular posts value-first.
Is r/nocode strict?
Relaxed, by our estimate (14/100 on our strictness scale, from its measured removal rate, 5 rules, and its stated gates). About 2% 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/nocode?
Based on our sample of recent and top posts, activity and scores peak around Monday 1am UTC and Thursday 5pm 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/nocode?
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 2% of r/nocode posts disappeared within about a day of going up. Many removals are silent, so checking your draft first beats finding out after.
