Can you promote in r/caregiversupport?

Welcome! Caregiving is an enormously challenging role, physically, emotionally, and financially. We are a caring community of caregivers here to support you, to problem solve with you and to simply let you vent when you need to. We are so glad you are here.

The short answer

Do not promote your product or solicit users; only participate as a supportive community member and, if you are a researcher/developer, use the Weekly Research Wednesday thread per the sidebar.

What works here

  • Empathetic, non-promotional support and experience-sharing
  • Answering caregiver questions with practical, non-commercial advice
  • Posting research/developer requests only in Weekly Research Wednesday thread

What gets posts removed

  • Posting product pitches, demos, affiliate links, or advertisements
  • Running surveys, studies, recruitment, or data-collection outside the designated thread
  • Linking to apps/services or sending unsolicited PMs to users
