- Posting a link to a website containing tracking isn't great, if contents of the website are behind a paywall maybe copy them into the post
- Don't promote proprietary software
- Try to keep things on topic
- If you have a question, please try searching for previous discussions, maybe it has already been answered
- Reposts are fine, but should have at least a couple of weeks in between so that the post can reach a new audience

Social media is standing up on a podium in a crowded street, shouting through a bullhorn. Now you're asking about comming back the next day to tell everyone what you said yesterday is a secret. Do you see how that seems strange?
Privacy lost, can NEVER be regained. When you make something public, that's it. It's public now.
Never post anything to any social media that you might want to keep private. It doesn't matter who owns it, or how it's licensed, if it's online unencrypted, it's public; Now and evermore.
