Posting your startup in r/EntrepreneurRideAlong
Yes. r/EntrepreneurRideAlong is one of the subreddits that lets founders share their own product, as long as you follow its self-promotion rules and give the community more than you take. The rules and the post formats that get approved are below.
Personal stories about real entrepreneurial journeys—the struggle, the pivot, the unexpected solution—with honest metrics and lessons learned. Posts that share what didn't work or unconventional tactics resonate more than polished success stories.
