r/Futurology

Can you post your project here?

Self-promotion is banned. Posts must focus on the future and include a submission statement to guide discussion. AI-focused posts are restricted to weekends.

Before you post: Rule 4 explicitly bans self-promotion.

The rules, in their words

1. Rule 1 - Respect: Be respectful to others - this includes no hostility, racism, sexism, bigotry, etc.
2. Rule 2 - Future Focus: Submissions must be *future focused*. All posts must have an initial comment, a **Submission Statement**, that suggests a line of future-focused discussion for the topic posted. We want this submission statement to elaborate on the topic being posted and suggest how it might be discussed in relation to the future. AI-focused posts are only allowed on the weekend.
3. Rule 3 - Images: No memes, reaction gifs or similarly low effort content. Images/gifs require a starter comment.
4. Rule 4 - Petitions, Polls, and Fundraising: No spamming - this includes polls, surveys, and self-promotion.
5. Rule 5 - Bots require moderator permission to operate
6. Rule 6 - Comment Quality: Comments must be on topic, contribute to the discussion and be of sufficient length. Comments that dismiss well-established science without compelling evidence are a distraction to discussion of futurology and may be removed.
7. Rule 7 - Account age: Account age: >1 day to comment, >5 days to submit content
8. Rule 8 - Negative Karma: Submissions and comments of accounts whose combined karma is too far in the negatives will be removed
9. Rule 9 - No Duplicates: Avoid posting content that is a duplicate of content posted within the last 7 days.
10. Rule 10 - In Depth: Submissions with [in-depth] in the title have stricter post length and quality guidelines.
11. Rule 11 - Title Quality: Titles should accurately and truthfully represent the content of the submission.
12. Rule 12 - Original Sources: Support original sources - avoid blogs/websites that are primarily rehosted content. AI generated text does not qualify as an original source.
13. Rule 13 - Content age: Content older than 6 months must have [month, year] in the title.
