Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.

Rule summary

  • Rules for posts: 1. Posts must in some way relate to sheds: building, buying, repairing, living in, using, etc. 2. Don't be a dick.
  • No spam: Spamming will result in an immediate *permanent* ban.
  • Shit post Saturdays: Keep your memes and shit posts to Saturday.
  • No AI images: No AI images

Works well

  • A photo post showing off a shed you built or restored, with a short honest story about the process
  • A repair walkthrough, for example fixing a roof, a floor, or a door, with real photos and what you learned
  • A question asking the community for advice on a shed problem you are genuinely facing
  • A post about what you actually do in your shed, whether that is a workshop, a hobby space, or storage
  • A helpful comment sharing practical repair or building advice on someone else's post, with no link attached

Avoid

  • Posting anything that has nothing to do with sheds, because the community removes off-topic posts
  • Promoting your product, service, or link in a way that reads as spam, because spamming gets an immediate permanent ban
  • Using AI generated images in your post, because AI images are banned outright
  • Dropping memes or shitposts on a weekday, because they only belong on Saturdays
  • Being rude or dismissive in the comments, because the second rule of the community is don't be a dick
  • Writing a post that mentions sheds once but is really an advert, because it will be judged as spam

What r/shedditors Is For

This is a community for shed enthusiasts everywhere. People post about anything shed related, and the public description says all shed related posts are welcome. That includes showing off your shed, sharing repair tips and advice, and telling the community what you do in your shed. The rules spell out the range clearly, posts can be about building, buying, repairing, living in, or using a shed. The description also tags it with DIY and gardening, so the crowd skews toward hands on people who build and fix things themselves. There are no observed top posts to learn from, so the safest read is the description itself, real sheds, real projects, real advice.

Rules That Matter Before Posting

Four rules decide what survives here. The first is called “Rules for posts” and it says every post must in some way relate to sheds, whether that is building, buying, repairing, living in, or using one, and it also says don't be a dick. The second is “No spam”, and the rule text is blunt, spamming will result in an immediate permanent ban. The third is “Shit post Saturdays”, which keeps memes and shit posts to Saturday only. The fourth is “No AI images”, which bans AI images outright. For a founder doing marketing adjacent posting, the spam rule is the one that can end your account's history in this community in one move, so treat anything promotional with real care.

What To Post

The good news is this community wants exactly what a founder with a genuine connection to sheds can offer, real experience. A build diary of a shed project with your own photos is a strong shape, because it shows off a shed and shares what you did in it. A repair walkthrough, like how you fixed a leaky roof or a rotten floor, fits the repair tips and advice part of the description. A question asking how others use their shed, or how they would solve a problem you are facing, invites the community to share. If your product or work touches sheds, the safe move is to post the shed story first and be honest and helpful in the comments, never leading with a pitch. Keep it human, keep it shed focused, and keep your memes for Saturday.

What To Avoid

The fastest way to get banned here is spam, because the “No spam” rule promises an immediate permanent ban, not a warning or a removal. Posting something with no real connection to sheds will get it removed, since posts must relate to sheds in some way. AI images are banned, so do not use them even if they look good. Memes and shit posts are only allowed on Saturday, so posting one on any other day breaks the “Shit post Saturdays” rule. And basic civility matters, the don't be a dick rule means rude or hostile comments can be removed too.

Common questions about r/shedditors

Can I mention my business at all?

Yes, if your post is genuinely about sheds. A repair story, a build diary, or advice from your own shed projects fits the description. A thinly disguised advert does not, and spam gets you permanently banned.

Are AI images allowed?

No. The rule named “No AI images” bans them outright, so use real photos of real sheds.

Can I post a meme?

Only on Saturday. The rule named “Shit post Saturdays” keeps memes and shit posts to that one day.

Can I include a link to my site?

The rules do not say links are banned, but the rule named “No spam” is enforced with permanent bans, so keep links minimal and make sure the post itself is useful shed content.

What counts as an acceptable post?

It must relate to sheds in some way, such as building, buying, repairing, living in, or using one, and it must not be spam, an AI image, or a meme outside Saturday.
