Subreddit Rules

  1. Follow Reddit's site-wide rules.
    • Reddit Content Policy
    • Reddiquette
  2. No spamming.
    • What constitutes spam?

  3. No blog-spam, low-effort posts, or indirect links.

    Posts must be submitted using their original source as the link.

    Software projects must also be submitted using their official software repository or official website if one exists and contain a post describing it in the comments or thread body (e.g., don't just post a link or image and nothing else).

    If posts are considered to be blog-spam or otherwise low-effort (including AI summarization) in nature they are subject to be removed.

    Desktop screenshots and hardware photos are permitted.

  4. AI/LLM-Assisted Disclosures

    AI/LLM/Vibe-coded assisted software projects are currently accepted within this subreddit.

    However, we ask that you add a footnote within your post to disclose where it is used in your project. (e.g., translations, assisted in coding, etc.)

    If it is mostly AI/LLM-coded, are you able to properly maintain it?

  5. Self-promotion.

    Self promotion, such as a developer or content creator interested in promoting their Haiku related creation, is permitted.

    However, if you are mostly posting your projects and/or websites while rarely interacting with r/HaikuOS as a whole, outside of those threads, the self-promotion can be considered excessive in nature and may be removed.

    Please actively participate in the subreddit as a whole.

    Non-Haiku related promotion is not permitted.
