Posting rules, in plain words

Self-promotion is judged case by case.

• No Affiliate Links (caveats): Posts containing affiliate links (or links to websites with affiliates) are generally prohibited. However, we allow high quality affiliate posts IF the poster explicitly states that they are using an affiliate link and that they get money. Moderators have discretion to ban or remove posts (e.g. post that seem low effort) and may ask the poster to prove their identity, for their methodology, or to prove that they actually own the robot. You may link to websites not your own if they comply.
• Stay On Topic: All posts and comments should be relevant to robot vacuums and related topics. Off-topic posts may be removed.
• No Spam or Self-Promotion: Avoid posting spam, excessive self-promotion, or advertisements without prior moderator approval. Occasional sharing of relevant content is allowed if it contributes to the discussion and you clearly disclose conflicts of interest.
• No shortened links: These are often malicious or used to hide affiliate links. The one exception we have is that we use them for our removal messages because of an issue with reddit: https://www.reddit.com/mod/RobotVacuums/wiki/automod/shorteners
