The tech community is buzzing with the introduction of a new weekly thread designed to solve a common moderation problem: where to put user-generated projects. Previously, valuable content like custom scripts, indie software, and tutorials were often removed to keep the front page clean or for violating promotional rules. Now, moderators have launched a weekly “I Made a Useful Thing” thread. This creates a designated space for developers and creators to showcase their pet projects, latest YouTube videos, or blog posts without cluttering the main feed.
While this is a win for open sharing, the platform is maintaining strict quality control. Commercial advertisements, affiliate links, and blatant monetization grabs will still be removed. This approach balances the community’s desire to share their work with the need to maintain high-quality, non-spammy discussions on the front page.
