Tips for Founders
Do This
Engage in the community for at least a week before posting your product
Share genuine learnings from your SaaS journey, not just product links
Respond to every comment on your posts — the community rewards engagement
Use the Saturday 'Share Your Startup' thread for your first post
Include metrics and real numbers in your posts (MRR, churn, growth)
Avoid This
Posting a product link with no context or story
Creating a new account just to promote
Ignoring the flair requirement (posts get auto-removed)
Posting the same product multiple times in a short period
