What its rules say about promotion
No ProductHunt Links, Vercel Links, just a Link or free subdomains
Unfortunately we experience a ridiculous amount of spam that all have one thing in common - ProductHunt links and.......now Vercel links. Any post with a producthunt or vercel link will be removed. If you don't believe in your startup enough to buy a domain its not worth our time to roast.

Don't like a roast? That doesnt mean you get to report it. Also if you report somebody and claim they did something to you in another subreddit - we don't care. We will not ban people for things done in other subreddits. Period. - Lack Of Effort or not Roast
If you simply repost from another subreddit the post will removed, if you just post a two sentence post it will be removed, if you post something asking a question it will be removed. This is to prevent spamming if the sub and low quality nonsense. - AI Slop
