Tool Questions - Lemmy.ca
I created a community to help people with questions about tools, power tool repair, fasteners, safety gear, and pretty much anything else tool-related. I work for a hardware store located in Ontario, and I thought this could be a great way to give back to the amazing community of Canadian construction professionals and DIYers. I also think it would be fun to just chitchat about tools with other enthusiasts.
I got a bunch of comments that said I was a bot or a shill, so I deleted this community entirely. Sorry. Maybe someone else can try.
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.
