How do I format ASCII art on Reddit?

Reddit uses Markdown. For ASCII art, indent each line with 4 spaces (or use a code block with ```). This preserves spacing and alignment. Use our 'Copy for Reddit' button for automatic formatting!

Why does my ASCII art look broken on Reddit?

Reddit's default text formatting collapses multiple spaces and changes line breaks. Always use code block formatting (4 space indent or triple backticks) to preserve your ASCII art.

Can I use ASCII signs in Reddit comments?

Yes! ASCII signs work in both posts and comments. Just make sure to format them as code blocks. They're perfect for adding humor or emphasis to your comments.

What subreddits appreciate ASCII art?

Many meme subreddits, gaming communities, and hobby subreddits enjoy ASCII art. Some great ones include r/copypasta, r/ASCII_Archive, and community-specific subreddits where ASCII reactions are popular.

Does Reddit have character limits?

Reddit comments can be up to 10,000 characters, which is plenty for ASCII art. Post titles are limited to 300 characters, so ASCII art should go in the post body or comments.
