Can you promote in r/python?
The largest Python community for Reddit! Stay up to date with the latest news, packages, and meta information relating to the Python programming language. --- If you have questions or are new to Python use r/LearnPython
The short answer
If you reply publicly, focus on providing helpful technical value, disclose your affiliation, and if sharing a product/project post it as a properly formatted showcase text post or within the designated showcase thread with source code and descriptive sections.
What works here
- Post projects using 'showcase' flair and text posts with description and source code
- Share showcases in the monthly/daily showcase threads
- Answer technical questions with useful, non-promotional help
What gets posts removed
- Posting link-only or paywalled content
- Posting showcases outside the required showcase thread/flair
- Pure advertising, short promotional blurbs, or low-quality blog posts
