What works here
- Sharing thoughtful analysis, research, or discussion that adds value
- Linking to your work if you clearly disclose you wrote/are affiliated
- Participating in back-and-forth discussion and answering questions
What gets posts removed
- Posting stealth/self-serving content without disclosure
- Submitting basic press releases, fundraising announcements, or listicles
- Dropping promotional links or marketing copy with no added value
