Can you promote in r/australianstartups?
Share what you are working on, your learnings and ideas.
The short answer
Post as an Australian startup with context and a clear request for feedback (not a sales pitch), disclose your affiliation, limit posts to ~once/week, and don't solicit customers or ask for DMs.
What works here
- Share what you're working on and learnings
- Post links if you include context/summary
- Ask for feedback from the community
What gets posts removed
- Direct solicitation, sales pitches or recruiting customers
- Offering services on others' posts or requesting DMs
- Posting more than once per week about the same project
- Market research, surveys or asking for data collection
- Posting free apps/FOSS repos (per rule)
