Can you post your project here?

Self-promotion or 'I built X' posts are not addressed in these rules. The rules focus on how to ask questions and how to provide answers, including specific formatting and content requirements for various types of queries.

Before you post: The subreddit is strictly for asking questions about things on the tip of your tongue, not for sharing personal projects or products. There are no provisions for self-promotion.

The rules, in their words

1. Be civil and respectful to each other.: Act in good faith on this subreddit, posts and answers. Try not to waste people's time. No trolling or shitposts here.
2. No arbitrary link titles (How to answer including a link): Include a description of what you are linking to in case the link breaks, i.e. Name of the video and creator/uploader. Do not use URL shorteners, Tumblr, or partner links, these are all automatically removed.
3. Do not repeat something already suggested.: The OP does not need to be overwhelmed with multiple suggestions of the same thing. If you have replied with the same thing as someone else did earlier, you should delete your comment.
4. Reply “Solved!” to the first correct answer: When what you’re looking for is found, reply Solved! in reply to the first (oldest) comment that gave you the answer.
5. Do not delete post/answer: Do not delete your answer after it has been acknowledged. Do not delete your post. People are interested in what has been asked for, what has been suggested, and want to see what has been found.
6. No reposting within one week.: Wait one week before reposting a question (Please link to your old posts to rule out previous suggestions. **If no suggestions were given,** you can delete and re-post)
7. Music posts: Make it easy for people to help you by recording a vocaroo or providing an online synthesiser recording of your music. Describing musical notes as text without including a vocaroo or other playable link will get your post removed - this includes “do doo dooo” or other attempts at written music notation, including Solfège. This applies even if the singer doo-doo-doo’s the melody in the song. If there is a similar song to the one you are looking for, provide a link to that.
8. No People: No posts such as “who is this person”. Actors/actresses and historical figures who are not common knowledge within the public domain are off limits. This rule will generally be handled on a case by case basis.
9. Nothing Illegal: No TOMT posts looking for Warez or requests for anything illegal. This includes any streams for movies or sports or anything of that nature. Torrents, trackers, piracy, etc.
10. No NSFW Posts: No porn. Use /r/tipofmypenis for porn. No gore or animal violence. Please note that horror films (simulated gore) are ok, provided they have a NSFW tag.
11. Post format: **You can only ask one question per post, and your post title must start with [TOMT]** - i.e. [TOMT][MOVIE][1990s] Movie about a kid who befriends an alien. Use a date range if you need to - nobody knows when you were a kid. Include your home country if relevant, i.e. if you are looking for a regional TV show.
12. No bribes: Do not offer rewards in the post as an attempt to publicise your post. You can reward people once the post is solved if you wish.
13. Participation: Your post may initially show as "Removed by Reddit's filters". Comment on your post for it to be approved. The poster must comment on their post to make it visible in the subreddit, and to acknowledge the subreddit rules. Use this comment to add anything else you need to. Posts submitted but not commented on after 60 minutes will be removed. Reply to suggestions made as frequently as possible - do not abandon your post!
14. No AI generated answers: Do not copy and paste AI-generated answers. Prompt-generated suggestions are generally unhelpful and occasionally entirely nonexistent. That said, if you receive an AI-generated answer that you believe may be correct, please research said suggested media to make sure that it exists and fits the question before you bring it up yourself (in your own words). If a quick search shows no evidence of the existence of what you're about to suggest, don't suggest it.
