r/HobbyDrama

Can you post your project here?

Posts unrelated to hobbies are not allowed. If you are sharing a project, ensure it is a hobby and that the drama has concluded at least 14 days prior. Provide sources and detail the consequences of the drama.

Before you post: This subreddit is focused on drama within hobbies, not sharing personal projects or product launches. Product/side-project promotion would likely be considered off-topic and against the spirit of the subreddit's rules.

The rules, in their words

1. Follow all site-wide rules and reddiquette: Reddit's [Content Policy](https://www.redditinc.com/policies/content-policy) must be followed everywhere on the site, including this subreddit. We also enforce [the reddiquette guidelines](https://www.reddithelp.com/en/categories/reddit-101/reddit-basics/reddiquette).
2. Do not insult or attack other users: Users must remain civil during disagreements. Do not use language which is offensive, cruel, racist, transphobic, ableist, anti-Semitic, etc. Attack the subject you’re debating, not the person you’re discussing it with.
3. Posts must be hobby related: For the purposes of the sub, we define a hobby as “as a leisure activity done usually in one's spare time”. Please use the “hobby history” tag if you’re writing about hobby drama involving professionals in your hobby. If you feel that the topic of your post does not fit the subreddit, then please message the mods.
4. Sources must be provided if possible. And do not post, link to, or ask for personal information.: If your posts require sources, specifically relating to the core drama, then please provide links and screenshots (with personal information redacted). Sources can either be linked in the text or included as a list at the end of the post, or in the comments. If sources are linked in the comments, said comment(s) must be posted as soon as the post goes live.
5. Drama must have concluded at least 14 days prior to post: All drama must have concluded at least 14 days prior to being posted. This means there must be concrete conclusions and no new dramatic happenings within the last 14 days and consequences cannot include “it remains to be seen” or “time will tell”. Drama that is fresh and/or ongoing may be posted in the weekly Hobby Scuffles thread
6. Consequences must be detailed: Posts must be clear about how the drama impacted the hobby/group/community/etc. Posts without any consequences are boring. Do not use this report reason for Hobby History posts.
7. No validation-seeking or awfulbrag posts: No posts where OP either is part of the drama and is saying "This other person is totally wrong and I was right" (validation seeking) or caused the drama and is saying "look how awful I am, I made all this drama happen" (awfulbrag).
8. No low-effort posts / No reposts: Posts should include include sufficient detail to be understandable to the reader and written with attention to explaining the situation, the history, and the consequences. Do not repost previously posted content or plagiarise other works. AI-generated content falls under this.
9. Influencer / YouTuber / Reddit drama: Posts which are not about a hobby should be posted to their respective subreddits, e.g. /r/YouTubeDrama, /r/SubredditDrama, etc.
10. Flair non-drama posts as Hobby History: Non-drama posts (tales and/or histories about your hobby) must be flaired as Hobby History. Hobby History posts are quality, detailed writeups of interesting non-drama events in your hobby, or drama involving professionals.
11. Flair Heavy posts appropriately: Drama involving self-harm, abuse, adult content, or other topics which readers may find uncomfortable and wish to avoid must be flared with the Heavy tag.
12. Banned Topics: The mods reserve the right to ban discussion indefinitely of any topic that may attract brigading and/or result in unnecessary toxicity. [List here.](https://www.reddit.com/r/HobbyDrama/wiki/banned_topics)
