Fintech communities have some of the strictest moderation on Reddit. r/personalfinance and r/investing apply karma minimums and manual review to filter out promotional posts. Building presence in these subreddits takes accounts that can pass that scrutiny. The Reddit account inventory at Signals includes profiles aged and seasoned across finance communities so your participation isn't flagged on entry.
