What r/longtermtravel Is For
This community is for long-term travelers and people who treat travel as a lifestyle. The description says it is not for shoestring travel, general travel, hitchhiking, or flight deals, because other subreddits cover those. It is for anything to do with long-term travel and the people who live it.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The one rule that matters here is called scraping content. The policy brief is clear that moderators remove posts that scrape content from the community. That is the only stated rule, so it is the one thing you can be certain will get you in trouble if you break it.
What To Post
A good post here comes from genuine long-term travel experience. If you are a founder doing respectful Reddit marketing, share a real story or lesson from living on the road for months or years, and only mention your product if it is directly useful to that lifestyle. The community wants people who live long-term travel, so your post should sound like a traveler first and a founder second.
What To Avoid
The one thing the rules explicitly call out is scraping content. Do not scrape any content from this subreddit. If your product or workflow involves pulling posts, comments, or data from r/longtermtravel, stay away from it entirely. That is the clearest line the moderators have drawn.
