In an effort to balance quality control with community engagement, the platform has officially launched a new weekly megathread titled ‘I made a useful thing’. Historically, the site has strictly enforced rules against self-promotion and advertising to keep the front page clear of spam. However, acknowledging the wealth of talent in the user base, moderators have created this dedicated space for developers and creators to showcase their work without clogging the main feed.
This weekly thread invites users to share their latest scripts, software projects, tutorials, and YouTube videos. It serves as a curated outlet for pet projects that might otherwise violate strict promotion rules. While the platform is encouraging creativity, they emphasized that this isn’t a free-for-all; commercial advertisements and obvious monetization grabs will still be removed. This is a smart move for fostering a DIY culture while maintaining editorial standards.
