Even when using an approved host, images/gif/webm must be of a sufficiently high visual quality. We're happy to take suggestions for new hosts, but they must be vetted and voted in first. 3. Post On Topic Posts only
Anything off topic will be deleted with immediate effect. These are our content types:
Screenshots of your system Workflow: a GIF/webm showing how you use your system) Hardware: photos of machines running *nix Material: any OC you have created Discussion & Meta: self posts Other: mod approved content
5. Follow Content Rules Posts & Comments
Never post someone elses content without their express permission. This goes for everything from screenshots to materials.
For any post that isn't a discussion, please leave a details comment explaining what's going on. The bot gives 30 minutes and 1 warning before removing posts without one.
Defaults aren't permitted, exceptions being obscurities & major DE redesigns. Also, posts which only make changes to icon and gtk/kde themes are default.

As of /r/unixporn 2.0 all posts bar discussions now require a details comment. For screenshot and workflow you must provide a link to your wallpaper and (if not-default/applicable) give your conky config, gtk-theme and icon-theme. For material and hardware provide some basic details of what's going on - there are no restrictions on what this has to be, but a short summary is much appeciated. This rule is enforced by a bot which checks for new posts and gives them 15 minutes to leave a comment before warning, and 30 minutes before removal. Example
This is an example of a details comment. Note that it includes some information that isn't required, such as the dock being used and the browser theme.
Wallpaper: Rainbow Tiles by simpledesktops.com GTK: Ninix Icons: Moka Conky: Google Now Dock: DockBarX Other: browser is Firefox with the FXChrome theme

post the one about banning people for criticism

Reddiquette makes for a much nicer community. Be respectful toward others in the community, in general and in the giving/recieveing of criticism. People will have different opinions on what makes an attractive set-up.
We shouldn't have to add this clarification but the behaviour of certain users has lead us to think it necessary. Please don't make racist, sexist, or homophobic comments.
