Where this comes from
View the current official rules on RedditAdvertising ban
The rules and sidebar state that advertising is prohibited and spam/ads are forbidden without moderator agreement — do not post ads or solicit customers.
Projects allowed
Sidebar explicitly permits showing your projects, which allows non-promotional demos or technical showcases.
On-topic requirement
Posts and answers must relate to programming, so any founder reply should be technical, relevant, and not pure marketing.
Moderator approval for ads
Advertising allowed only with moderator agreement, so seek mod approval before posting promotional content or links.
