r/devpt rules, stats, and what to post

This is the community for Portuguese developers. The description says it plainly, it is a community of Portuguese developers, and it points to devpt.co for more. The rules tell you what kind of posts fit, questions asked clearly and briefly, points of view explained in a short and direct way. The “Offtopic” rule makes it clear there are more appropriate subs for anything outside that scope. So think of it as a room where developers from Portugal help each other with clear, on topic questions, not a place for general marketing noise.

Four rules decide what survives here. “Objectividade” asks you to make your point or ask your question as briefly as possible, so a long winded pitch is a bad fit. “Spam” says market studies and surveys are not allowed, and common spam is out too. “Flair” makes the correct flair mandatory on every post. “Offtopic” reminds you there are more appropriate subs for questions that do not belong here. For a founder, the practical read is simple, be brief, pick the right flair, skip any survey, and stay on topic for Portuguese developers.

A good post here is short, clear, and correctly flaired. If you are a founder, the safest shape is a genuine question aimed at Portuguese developers, asked briefly, with the right flair attached. For example, a specific question about a technical choice, a tooling decision, or a workflow problem that developers in Portugal can answer from experience. If you want to share something you built, frame it as a brief point of view or a clear question, follow “Objectividade” by keeping it tight, and make sure the flair matches. There is no observed history of top posts to copy, so err on the side of plain, honest, and short.

The fastest way to get removed is to break one of the four rules. A market study or a survey is banned under “Spam”, so never bring one here, even a friendly looking one. Posting without the correct flair breaks “Flair”, which is mandatory. A vague or rambling post breaks the spirit of “Objectividade”, which wants your point made briefly. Anything that is not for Portuguese developers falls under “Offtopic”, and there are better subs for it. Common spam is also named in “Spam”, so no repeated link dropping.

What strikes me most here is how much of the survival guide is just the first rule, “Objectividade”. Ask a sharp question in a few sentences and you are already halfway to fitting in. There are no top post titles to learn from, so I would treat this room as one where a short, well flaired, genuinely useful question does the talking for you.
