## Summary

r/printondemand, created in 2011, is a public subreddit where sellers discuss print-on-demand shops, designs, niches and platforms. Most posts are about T-shirts and merch on Etsy and Merch by Amazon rather than books, so it is of limited use for KDP publishers. Its rules ban selling print-on-demand "classes", shortened links and links posted for reviews; post a screenshot instead.
