Can you promote in r/edtech?
EdTech
The short answer
Answer helpfully and transparently; avoid posting about your product except in the Monday/monthly vendor thread or by linking/ posting on /r/EdTechProducts, and always disclose your affiliation.
What works here
- Participate in normal discussions and provide non-promotional help
- Use the designated weekly/monthly thread to solicit feedback or advertise
- Post your product in /r/EdTechProducts as directed
What gets posts removed
- Creating standalone posts that promote your product or solicit users
- Conducting market-research/feedback requests as a developer outside allowed threads
- Astroturfing or covertly promoting without disclosure
