Can you promote in r/startupsolofounder?
Welcome to the home for solo founders building startups from scratch This community is for those going all in; coding, designing, marketing, validating, and scaling their ideas solo. Whether you’re bootstrapping your first MVP, seeking feedback, sharing progress, or simply surviving the startup grind alone, you’re in the right place.
The short answer
Participate genuinely: provide helpful answers first, disclose your role if relevant, and post about your project sparingly respecting the 24-hour posting rule.
What works here
- sharing progress or seeking feedback
- posting about your project (no more than once per 24 hours)
- engaging as a community member before promoting
What gets posts removed
- frequent reposting or spamming (violates 24-hour rule)
- overt sales pitches or heavy solicitation without community context
- jumping straight to a product link without contributing
