D&D/TTRPG Creators on this platform (sh.itjust.works)

I like this platform, and hope it succeeds, however I have a question for the community - what are everyone's thoughts on creators? I am one, for transparency-sake, and I am pretty sure we are not wanted here, since most of us have Adventures/ Art / Battle maps / Patreons / Kickstarters / Products to sell, even though we frequently give a lot of stuff for free to the community. Thoughts?

I spent a while looking for a "no ads" rule and then I figured it out.

Your home instance sh.itjust.works , where your account lives, has a rule of no ads. Lemmy.world, where this D&D community lives, does not appear to (yet) have a broad rule against advertisements.

I would still ask the mod before posting self promotion tho.

here are the only rules relevant lemmy.world I could find (from mastadon.world):

"Regarding Spam: We are not your free advertising platform. If you are here only to sell your products or services, you will be removed. Occasional posts of commercial links are OK, but when the vast majority of a user's posts are commercial in nature, we regard the account as a Spam account. Moderators will evaluate reports of Spam on a case by case basis."

so it seems just do it in a restrained way and don't let it be the majority of your content and it should be ok?

I mean... thing is... On reddit i have 80k karma because of my content posts. 99% of my posts there are my content posts. That would be considered "spamming" here, even if I only post once a week.

I'd much rather spend time painting an extra battle map for the community than sit on lemmy to hit whatever quota of interaction to not be considered a spammer.

As far as I know, we don't have user based karma here. Only posts and comments get a score. But we really should make sure that the community does not get over-run with a specific type of post. Unless the community is for that specific purpose, of course.

But I can imagine that not every instance would like to host a "share your Kickstarter project" community, as those posts will also show up for the users that like to read all local posts. Here on Lemmy.world that feed would already be a full of stuff you aren't interested in though, but that's my opinion and I also never used r/all or any of the other extremely broad subreddits.
