Is it even worth bothering trying to run a sub?

Just a few months back it was possible to create a sub and start filling it with content right away.

Now even if the both account and new sub are warmed up a couple months, karma at least 2k+, still ANY type of link is likely to get yur sub nuked.

Couldn't even post a freakin Redgif link recently , insta ban sub and account.

Fuck are they so scared about? Using too much of their server space ?

Well,at least they are more or less straightforward about the ban.

Running a subreddit has definitely gotten harder with Reddit tightening the rules. It’s not just about warming up accounts anymore, they’re cracking down on anything that looks remotely spammy, especially links. To avoid bans, focus on building organic engagement first: grow your sub with discussions, memes, or image posts before introducing any links. When you do post links, make sure they’re super relevant and not overly frequent. It’s frustrating, but with patience and the right strategy, it’s still possible to grow a successful sub.
