What gets removed in r/u_spez
Low karma or a new account
r/u_spez publishes no karma or age minimum, but unpublished account filters are common at this size. New accounts should comment before posting.

A shadowbanned account
If the account itself is shadowbanned, every post looks live to you and invisible to everyone else, in any subreddit.

r/u_spez posting questions
Can I post links in r/u_spez?
Yes. r/u_spez 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/u_spez require karma to post?
r/u_spez 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 That does not mean there is none: many subreddits enforce unpublished karma and account-age filters that remove posts silently.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/u_spez?
r/u_spez does not state a clear self-promo policy in its rules. Treat that as caution, not permission: mods remove promo at their discretion, and Reddit's sitewide spam filter still applies. A value-first post that mentions your project beats a launch-style post here.
Is r/u_spez strict?
Relaxed, by our estimate (4/100 on our strictness scale, from its 4 rules and stated gates; no removal sample yet). 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/u_spez?
Based on our sample of recent and top posts, activity and scores peak around Wednesday 4pm 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/u_spez?
The most common reasons are link policy violations, plus the layers every subreddit has: Reddit's sitewide spam filter, unpublished AutoMod rules, and account-level gates like karma and age. Many removals are silent: the post looks live to you and invisible to everyone else. Checking your draft first beats finding out after.
