Posting your startup in r/StartupAccelerators
Personal journey posts and milestone shares perform well, especially when they include honest reflection on challenges faced. Posts that provide data-driven insights or research (like failure analysis) or that lead with a small win with context also resonate. The angle is 'here's what I learned/built' rather than 'here's my product.'
Self-promotion rules
Self-promotion is allowed but should be genuine and value-focused. Posts work best when framed around learnings, milestones, or real problems solved rather than direct product pitches. Share your story and progress authentically; the community responds to transparency about struggles and wins alike.

been heads-down on this for a while now and finally hit a number worth pausing to reflect on. the early months taught me that the features i thought mattered most were basically noise.
