Can you promote in r/chefit?
The first subreddit for chefs to network, discuss ideas and concepts, and talk about the food world in general.
The short answer
Engage as a regular community member, provide helpful, non-promotional answers, and if you disclose your affiliation keep it brief and not salesy; avoid links and recruitment posts unless a moderator or specific thread permits them.
What works here
- participating in professional discussion
- sharing expertise and case anecdotes
- transparent disclosure of affiliation when relevant
What gets posts removed
- direct advertising or solicitation
- posting job ads or recruiting
- spammy crossposts or affiliate/shortened Amazon links
- posting product launch posts without prior community acceptance
