Curious to see everyone’s replies, because I swear AH cheese croissant used to be a lot better 2-3 years ago.
We're stricter than many other subreddits when it comes to some of these rules. We don't allow personal attacks, internet piracy, trolling and noncontributing comments like 'This!'.
We're a community, not a free platform to promote your cause. Therefore we don't allow surveys/questionnaires, petitions, crowdfunding pages, self-promotion, advertisements, or any kind of spam. Spam in comments is also not allowed, including when it is edited in later.
Memes, image macros, screenshots, opinion polls and other low-effort content related to the Netherlands may be submitted to r/ik_ihe, r/cirkeltrek, or other Dutch subreddits.
No questions which can be answered using our FAQ, the sidebar or a search engine.
Questions that are not specific to one person's situation are preferable.
Questions which are better suited for related institutions or subreddits will be removed.
Submissions to r/theNetherlands should be associated with the Netherlands, the Dutch people or the associated culture, and be of interest to the Dutch or people with an interest in the Netherlands. The reporting (or absence thereof) in Dutch media does not make the subject relevant to r/theNetherlands.
AMAs are allowed, but before starting one, please read this how-to guide.
Please reserve your own opinion for the comments. Rants, biased starts of a discussion or any other post where the poster's opinion is immediately clear will be removed. Link posts may use the original title even if it's not entirely descriptive and objective. Adding clarifications is allowed, as long as the additions or other changes are opinion-free.
Spoilers for recent tv shows or films are not allowed in titles. Spoilers for sports events, however, are allowed in the title.
Please take a look at the hot and new posts and do a search to check if something similar to your submission has been posted in the last six months already. If you post anyway, many subscribers will already be aware of the post and will downvote it, and your post will not generate anything like the same level of discussion as the initial submission did.
News related articles about the same subject without a significant new development are also considered duplicates.
The subreddit has mandatory link flair categories which allow subscribers to filter submissions, based on what they think is interesting and what is not. Selecting the appropriate flair for your submission saves the moderators a lot of work and helps subscribers with an interest in the content of your submission to find it. Flairs may be assigned automatically.
Please do not use [tags] in your post title.
Submissions can be in either English or Dutch. But don't use machine translations.
Comments should preferably be in English if the submission is in English. Not all subscribers to r/theNetherlands will fully understand the Dutch language, and reading submissions with English titles only to find Dutch comments may be disheartening to these subscribers.
Posts should have a title in the language of the linked content.
