How To Use This List

Start with the subreddit that matches the decision you are making this week. A retention question belongs in a different room than a launch story or a no-code prototype.

Common questions

What is the best subreddit for SaaS founders?

Start with r/SaaS when the question is directly about SaaS operations. Use r/microsaas or r/indiehackers for smaller bootstrapped products and r/startups for company-building questions.

Can SaaS founders promote their product on Reddit?

Most useful SaaS subreddits are hostile to link-first promotion. Treat Reddit as a place to be useful first, disclose affiliation, and mention the product only when it is genuinely relevant.

How should a SaaS founder choose a subreddit?

Choose based on the decision you need help with. Product decisions belong in product or SaaS communities, growth experiments in marketing communities, and founder lessons in founder communities.
