What to post in r/brdev
What fits the room, and what gets removed.
Works well
- Share a detailed code snippet and ask for technical feedback specifically on the logic or efficiency of the implementation.
- Post a technical analysis comparing two different software architecture patterns, citing academic or industry sources.
- Summarize a recent breakthrough in a specific programming language, providing a direct link to the original source and keeping the summary strictly objective.
- Discuss a complex security vulnerability in a common framework, focusing on the technical aspects of the exploit and the mitigation strategy.
Avoid
- Posting a link to your new product asking users to sign up or download it because the goal is promotion and not technical discussion.
- Asking for advice on which university or programming course to take since this is not the place for life advice.
- Sharing funny memes or jokes because the community values serious and informative discussions.
- Posting news stories using an image of the headline instead of providing a direct link to the original reliable source.

What r/brdev Is For
This community is for all subjects related to information technology, programming, and similar fields. It is a place where members can discuss technical topics and share knowledge within the IT and programming spheres.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The rules that are most important for marketing are Rule 9 Auto-promotion / Spam, Rule 7 Notícias, Rule 8 Conteúdo de Humor, Rule 5 Não pergunte sobre computadores e celulares, and Rule 4 Não peça conselhos de cursos ou faculdade.
What To Post
A good post here is one that focuses on technical discussion or evaluation of a project. This means sharing code, architecture, security analysis, or implementation details for feedback. When sharing news, you must provide direct links to reliable sources and keep your title neutral and objective. If you are looking for a job, you must follow the guidelines for job postings using the correct tag and providing company contact information without asking for direct contact.
What To Avoid
You must avoid being disrespectful to the community or other users, which includes irony and negative judgments. Do not post content that is meant to promote, test, launch, or gain users for a product, even if it is free or open source. Also, do not ask for advice regarding courses or colleges here, and do not post general questions about computers or cell phones.
A note from Anthony
It seems like r/brdev is a very serious place that prioritizes deep technical conversation over general promotion or lighthearted humor. The fact that they have a dedicated subreddit for humor shows they really want their main space to be about high quality, informative content.
