Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.
Rule summary
- No self-promotion or spam: Self-promotion is restricted, with narrow exceptions such as designated show-and-tell threads.
- Career questions go in the quarterly thread: Resume, interview, and career-transition questions belong in recurring career threads.
- No product or academic research: Product research, surveys, and research requests need the correct place or approval.
- No AI-generated posts: Top-level posts and comments generated by AI are not allowed.
- Moderators remove low-quality or off-topic posts: Posts need to contribute to product management practice.
Works well
- Questions about discovery, prioritization, roadmaps, stakeholder management, metrics, or product strategy.
- Founder questions framed through product decision-making rather than promotion.
- Detailed tradeoffs with market, user, and constraint context.
- Lessons from product process changes.
Avoid
- Promoting a product, template, course, or tool.
- Research surveys, app validation, and user interview recruitment.
- Career questions outside recurring threads.
- AI-written product takes.
