Posting your startup in r/micro_saas
Personal journey narratives with specific metrics (revenue, users, timeline) combined with lessons learned or tactical advice. The winning angle is vulnerability + transparency + teaching—showing the messy reality of building, not just the success highlights.
Self-promotion rules
r/micro_saas welcomes founder posts about their own products, but the focus should be on sharing lessons learned, milestones, and genuine insights rather than direct sales pitches. Posts perform best when they tell an authentic story about the journey and offer value to the community through transparency about what worked or failed.
