Ok, so I am a U.S. researcher who has ended up here bc of censorship issues on other platforms.

I understand why rules for no self promotion exist in general, but typically I would consider that to be things like promoting a business or anything with a paywall or with the goal to get more attention for self vs the goal to spread information that is being suppressed.

I started writing a blog on ghost and putting some information together to raise awareness about science and other policy disinformation. Would sharing the information or graphics from the blog still be self promotion since it’s my own blog

If it is self promotion, are there any good communities where this kind of things is ok to share?

    Are you talking about some community-specific or an instance-wide rule? Which community/instance? You should probably ask the mods/admins directly.

      I guess it would be community specific. Just looking around for places to share stuff, but it seems like it fits in many ways with the topic of the community but also includes aspects that might be in violation of the rules.

      I will try just asking individual communities
