Reddit r/SideProject: how to get listed

r/SideProject calls itself a subreddit for sharing and receiving constructive feedback on side projects, and for getting motivated by other people’s work. It was created on 17 January 2013 and its sidebar counter shows 337K weekly actives and 17K contributions a week. Posts are projects, progress stories and questions rather than dated launches with upvote tiers.

Checked on September 17, 2026 on the platform’s public pages.

Who lists here

Makers who want reactions to something half-finished as much as to a finished product; the front page mixes hobby hardware, open-source tools and small SaaS. Its About page lists no community rules at all and the wiki index page is disabled, so the posting format and Reddit’s site-wide rules are the written guidance.

What to prepare

  • A title in the format the community asks for: [Project name] - [Short description], with “Reddit - A website for sharing and discussing links.” given as the example.
  • A link people can open plus a post that says what you built, what stage it is at and what feedback you actually want.
  • Time to answer comments: the subreddit is built around constructive feedback, and that feedback arrives in your thread.

What “live” means here

Your post has its own permalink in r/SideProject and is visible to logged-out readers. There is no queue and no launch date — the thread and its comments are the whole listing, so save the permalink the moment it is up.

Worth knowing

With no subreddit rules posted, Reddit’s site-wide rules are what you are held to: rule 2 asks you to participate authentically in communities where you have a personal interest and not to spam. The community description also points to related subreddits such as r/startups and r/Entrepreneur if your post fits better there.
