1. Follow the rules of Lemmy.world - These rules are the same as Mastodon.world's rules, which can be found here.
2. Include a community title and description in your post title. - A following example of this would be New Communities - A place to post new communities all over Lemmy for discovery and promotion.
3. Follow the formatting. - The formatting as included below is important for people getting universal links across Lemmy as easily as possible.
Formatting
Please include this following format in your post:
[link text](/c/community@instance.com)
This provides a link that should work across instances, but in some cases it won't
You should also include either:
or instance.com/c/community
FAQ:
Q: Why do I get a 404?
A: At least one user in an instance needs to search for a community before it gets fetched. Searching for the community will bring it into the instance and it will fetch a few of the most recent posts without comments. If a user is subscribed to a community, then all of the future posts and interactions are now in-sync.
Q: When I try to create a post, the circle just spins forever. Why is that?
A: This is a current known issue with large communities. Sometimes it does get posted, but just continues spinning, but sometimes it doesn't get posted and continues spinning. If it doesn't actually get posted, the best thing to do is try later. However, only some people seem to be having this problem at the moment.

MODERATORS
Nobody accused you of being a bot. I was the one who called it out as an ad. On a server that specifically says no ads.
Your username is a store. The posts you made all linked back to your store's blog.
You may not have had bad intentions, and I totally believe you wanted to help. But doing so under the name of a company, with posts that solely link back to that company... Is advertising.
If you want to advertise for fastek, put up a lemmy server of your own, on your domain, with your money. Or find an existing server that doesn't have 'no ads' as a rule.
The whole idea was to give people peace of mind knowing that a professional was answering their questions. But it's fine. I deleted everything.
