Why the ban risk is low

  • Built for sharing what you made — no promo-specific restrictions beyond the format.

The rules, in plain English

Hook in the first line, link last (or in a reply — links can suppress reach). Thread format for features. Post Tue–Thu mornings. Engage replies fast for the algorithm.

How to post here safely

Do
  • Open with a hook; put the link last or in a reply.
  • Use a thread for features and reply fast to keep reach up.
Don't
  • Don't lead with the link — it can suppress reach.

Account requirements

Level
Recommended
  • Launch from your established profile, not a fresh brand account with no history.
  • Don't drop your link in replies to unrelated posts — that's the documented spam signal.
  • Never coordinate amplification across accounts; the platform-manipulation policy covers exactly that.
