Can I share my own Django tool or library here?
Yes, the Reddit rules explicitly say sharing your own content is fine as long as you also participate in other ways and share other things too.

Rules can change, so Rankhog keeps verification dates and the original public Reddit sources visible.
Rule summary
- Code of Conduct: Django's **[Code of Conduct](https://www.djangoproject.com/conduct/)** applies here, so be good to each other.
- Reddit rules: All of reddit's site-wide rules -- including those about harassment, posting personal information, spam, invading/brigading, vote manipulation, etc. apply here. Sharing your own content is fine, but remember to participate in other ways/share other things too, or the spam algorithm might get you.
- Stay on-topic: Posts and discussion in /r/django should be, y'know, relevant to Web development with Django, or to the Django community :)
Works well
- A link to an open source Django package you built, with a comment explaining what problem it solves.
- A technical tutorial post about solving a specific Django web development problem.
- A discussion question about Django best practices that invites developers to share their experience.
Avoid
- Posting content unrelated to Django web development, which violates the Stay on-topic rule.
- Dropping links without participating in other discussions, risking the spam algorithm under the Reddit rules.
- Harassing users or sharing personal information, both prohibited under the Reddit rules and the Code of Conduct.
What r/django Is For
This is the place for news and links about Django. If you build web apps with Django, you can share updates, talk about development, and discuss things relevant to the Django ecosystem.
Rules That Matter Before Posting
The rules that matter most for marketing here are the Code of Conduct, the Reddit rules, and Stay on-topic. The Code of Conduct means you have to be respectful in every interaction. The Reddit rules let you share your own content, but if you only post your own stuff, the spam algorithm might catch you. Stay on-topic means your post has to be relevant to web development with Django or the Django community.
What To Post
A good post for a founder here is something Django developers can actually use. You could share an open source package, a tutorial, or a technical writeup that helps people building with Django. If you are sharing your own product, make sure it is built on Django or clearly helps Django developers, and take part in other discussions so you are not just dropping links.
What To Avoid
Do not post anything that violates the Django Code of Conduct, like being rude or disrespectful. Do not spam under the Reddit rules, which means do not only share your own content without joining other discussions. And avoid anything off-topic, because posts that are not relevant to web development with Django will be removed under the Stay on-topic rule.

Common questions about r/django
Can I post a link to my blog about Django?
Yes, but keep it directly relevant to web development with Django per the Stay on-topic rule.
Is AI-generated content allowed here?
The rules do not address AI content specifically, so relevance and respectful conduct are what matter most.
