Please follow this instance’s posted rules of conduct.

This community is inspired by but not connected r/ebookdeals on Reddit.

Its purpose is for readers to share deals that they find on the web for ebooks through well-known retailers. Additionally, if you are an author and have an interest in posting a notice when you have a price drop coming up, please feel free to let us know, and we can include yours as well. Please avoid self-promotional posts without first contacting somebody on the community management team.

Spam, referral, shortened, and affiliate links are not allowed as this is not a community designed to allow members or mods to make money on their deal findings. Links must be as close to vanilla hyperlinks as possible for the retailer. Links must be cleaned or trimmed of tracking information or when posting or they will be removed.

Please limit posts to time-limited discounts of non-public domain items. Books that are at a permanently low price are great, but not appropriate for this community. The same goes for republishings or cleanups of public domain books.

As this community has grown I've been getting more and more reports regarding spam from other instances. If you don't like this community, you can just block it? It's pretty easy? Or since all the reports are from remote instances... you don't have to subscribe to it either?

Reports of ACTUAL advertising and spam will have action taken, obviously. But we have had none so far. I don't know what it is about this community that a small handful of people feel is spammy but there's things built into lemmy to prevent this community from being visible to you if it isn't your thing...

Then block it. Literally takes more effort to whine about it than to block it.
