What its rules say about promotion

We do not allow: * Selling (including “where/how do I sell?” or marketplace questions) * Crowdfunding * Giveaways or trades * Personal shopping or “what should I buy?” questions * Polls or surveys * Memes or low-effort content * Off-topic posts * Accounts that do not participate outside of their own posts Posts should benefit the community as a whole, not just an individual need.
All 4 rules of r/raspberry_pi
- Be Inspiring
Posts showing a Raspberry Pi simply sitting in a case, unconnected, or powered on with no unique functionality are not allowed. Share your unique Pi applications, detailing the goals, challenges, and achievements of your endeavors. Let's keep our focus on the innovation and learning that comes from doing. Don't post an image or a screenshot and put a link or details in the comments, link directly or make a [self post](https://ibb.co/sCGchxC). - Be Inclusive
Use English as our common language. Remember, every expert was once a beginner. Approach each interaction with kindness and an open mind. Constructive feedback and encouragement are our tools for building a supportive community. Discouragement, negativity, and trolls have no place here. No NSFW posts, even if they are tagged as such. - Be Prepared
We focus on troubleshooting, not design or research for you. Include: * clear description in title * Pi model/components * what you tried/researched & where stuck * exact errors/code/commands/config (as text, not screenshot) Do not ask: * for tutorials/links * for ideas * what looks nice * if a project is worth doing Create a detailed [self-post](https://ibb.co/sCGchxC) so information is visible and editable. If your setup is complex, reduce it to a minimal example showing the issue. - Be Community
