Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Sidebar/rules don't specify promo policy—ask the moderators before posting product links or promotional content.
Links
No explicit link policy. Default to no URL: link-plus-young-account is one of the most common automated removal patterns on Reddit.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: question, guide, discussion
Title: short, specific problem or tutorial (eg “How to cache deps in GitHub Actions?”). Use first person for reproducible bug reports; post technical body with minimal prose and include YAML, error logs, steps tried. Typical length: concise title + focused post with code blocks. Tone: technical and practical. Upvoted: clear MREs, helpful how-tos, reusable workflows; removed or ignored: off-topic chatter or apparent blogspam.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/github_actions's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
