Where prompt patterns get tested with real outcomes — not the LinkedIn "ChatGPT is amazing" cycle.
Prompt engineering Reddit is where practitioners share prompt patterns, debate techniques (chain-of-thought, few-shot, ReAct), and discuss the practical realities of building with LLMs. These subreddits concentrate the practitioners actually shipping LLM applications. Use them for substantive prompt techniques, pattern discovery, and the kind of practical depth that determines what actually works in production LLM applications.

Prompt engineering subreddits reward substantive patterns with reproducible examples. Share prompts with context (model used, parameters, expected output), share patterns that solve real problems, and engage with iteration in comments. r/PromptEngineering is the dedicated community; r/ChatGPT and r/OpenAI cover application-specific prompts; r/MidJourney and r/StableDiffusion cover image-gen prompts. The community values substantive techniques over generic "be specific in your prompts" advice.
Real discipline with growing rigour. r/PromptEngineering and adjacent subs document substantive techniques (chain-of-thought, few-shot, structured outputs, ReAct) with reproducible patterns. The discipline has matured significantly since 2022 with formal evaluation frameworks and pattern libraries. The marketing hype obscures the genuine technical depth.
Both, with different content. r/ChatGPT reaches the largest audience and welcomes practical application prompts. r/PromptEngineering reaches the smaller specialised audience and welcomes deeper technique content. The same content rarely fits both — application showcases fit r/ChatGPT; technique deep-dives fit r/PromptEngineering.
Substantially. r/MidJourney and r/StableDiffusion focus on visual prompt techniques (style references, parameter combinations, model-specific syntax). r/PromptEngineering and r/ChatGPT focus on text-LLM prompt patterns. The skills overlap conceptually but the practical techniques are distinct.
Yes, with substantive content. Tools whose teams share substantive prompt patterns, evaluation methodologies, or workflow content earn standing. Tools that promote features without substance get filtered. The community values practical patterns regardless of whether the source is a tool maker or independent practitioner.
