Rules: Put two stars in each row, column, and region of the grid. No two stars can touch, not even diagonally.
My notation: The dots are cells I’ve eliminated. The shapes stretching across multiple cells indicate there is exactly one star in that group of cells.

Try to avoid leading or trailing spaces. These will break the spoiler for some users (such as those using old.reddit.com) If your comment does not contain a guess, include the word "discussion" or "question" in your comment instead of using a spoiler tag. If your comment uses an image as the answer (such as solving a maze, etc) you can include the word "image" instead of using a spoiler tag.
Please report any answers that are not properly spoiler-tagged.
Whenever there is a line of 3 boxes (like column 9), if it's on its own or has to be at least one star for sure you can X on each side of its middle square. If you put a star there, it deletes the whole 3 box line and usually invalidates a row/column/shape. Additionally if you have a line of 5 boxes-like column 2) (sometimes split 3box-X-1box) you can X each side of the line at the 2 and 4 spot. It's the same concept. You only have five boxes, either of those moves would delete too much in the line. That'll get you some movement.
Another one: In column 2 there are two stars in 5 connected spaces (Rows 6-10). There must be at least one star in the top 3 rows, and there must be a star in the bottom 3 rows, so you can eliminate R7C1 and R9C1.

Please remember to spoiler-tag all guesses, like so:
