Choosing where to post
Questions do best in r/BitcoinBeginners, the community on this list that is built around advice and help (around 3.3 posts a day). Asking the same thing in r/CryptoCurrency often gets it removed or lost among the 78 daily posts. Competition for attention differs a lot: r/BitcoinBeginners has 1.2M members but only about 3.3 new posts a day — roughly one new post for every 372.6K members — while r/CryptoCurrency gets about 78 a day, one for every 130.5K. A strong, well-made post therefore has more room to be seen in r/BitcoinBeginners; r/CryptoCurrency is better when you want quick replies. Jokes and memes have their own home in r/cryptocurrencymemes; the serious communities tend to remove them, so keep the two apart.
Big subreddits give a post the widest audience, but they also bury it quickly; the mid-sized communities on this list are usually friendlier for questions and first posts. Always read the rules in the sidebar first — each community is run by its own volunteer moderators. Our guide to searching Reddit explains how to dig through any of these communities, and the subreddit info tool gives you the stats of one we don't list.
