Do's

Disclose your affiliation immediately to build transparency and avoid being flagged as a "hidden" marketer.

Lead with technical value by answering complex questions thoroughly before mentioning your specific tool.

Participate as a genuine community member by engaging in threads where you have no promotional interest.

Speak in "dev-to-dev" language by focusing on architecture, edge cases, and documentation rather than marketing jargon.

Adhere strictly to subreddit-specific rules regarding self-promotion and "Showoff Saturday" designated threads.

Don'ts

Never "link-drop" without context or post bare URLs without providing a helpful summary in the Reddit comment.

Don't get defensive or argue with critics who point out flaws; instead, ask for their technical feedback.

Avoid using a purely corporate username, as developers respond better to individuals than faceless brand accounts.

Never use "sock-puppet" or alt-accounts to fake organic interest, as the community will quickly spot and ban you.

Don't copy-paste the same promotional message across multiple threads, which triggers spam filters and hurts reputation.
