Hi guys!

Postiz is an open-source social media scheduling tool. After much digging, I finally got Lemmy to work with Postiz.

And, of course, it’s available in the open source! Let me know if it works for you!

And if you have suggestions for more Fediverses, I am happy to hear :)

    Nowadays I don’t like it if software “uses AI”. When I hear “AI”, I imagine that hype with fidget spinners and NFTs that we had, useless (for me) feature that will consume too much resources and take up more space, also AI’s often proprietary and don’t have their own open source code. It sounds like it’s useless and a little bit childish. In fact, it also seems that it doesn’t do anything helpful like automation, it’s just generate text “out of nowhere” (as far as I know). So this is my frustration. But anyway, if it’s open source, good, keep it up!

    Postiz is one of those open source projects that’s intentionally very hard to self host so you‘re practically gravitate towards to use their own paid services.

    I hope they give up on that business strategy sometime.

      That seems like an optional feature that competing products have.

      I’d rather the fediverse friendly open source version have features I won’t use, if it means it can continue to grow and compete with the proprietary ones

        If amazon sold stolen credit cards or murder-for-hire, would you say “that seems like an options feature that I won’t use”?

        No, because things that are designed to cause harm shouldn’t be tolerated. We have enough problems with misinformation here. Let’s not encourage tools that make it worse.

    Iso27002 fail.

    • docker kills validation, so we can’t assure consistency as we’re essentially dividing by plaid.
    • npm can’t be run in prod due to inconsistency of upstream, and dev tools which verboten in stage/prod.

      Wait till you see how Lemmy and piefeed are installed. Its a security nightmare here on the fediverse.

    so does this mean post dumps can be spread out? If so I hope some mods use it as it would help for each post to be like once an hour rather than half a dozen all at once.

      I usually post 3-4 posts at the same time to my communities because it’s quick and easy. Not sure if setting up scheduled posts is worth it

        depends on how concerned you are with the recievers. its nice when going through a feed to have topics spread out. at least to me. im much more likely to start just scrolling past more things when clumped together but if spread out then they get a bit more attention. That could just be me though.

          Posting daily to the community is fine, starting to use an third party tool to schedule seems too much.

          I’m lucky that usually I’m not the only poster in communities, so content gets there at other times as well

            yeah don’t misunderstand. its a nicety but beggars can’t be choosey type of thing. Quality posts are a gift so I don’t mean to quibble about the packaging :)

              This is especially true with the RSS feed communities

              Also I don’t think you’re the only one. Often when I come across a clump like that, most of them are sitting at only a few upvotes while other posts in the community do much better.

                well so you could have several cat pictures lets say but they are not of the same cat and its not doing the same thing or many various articles about trump. different things and actions. one about the trial another about greenland another about immigrants, etc. no direct duplicates just causes the feed to be streaky.

                  I mean if you dont want to see cat pics, ask mods to ban cat pics. I’ve never seen a cat pic in my Lemmy feed, but I do occasionally see pictures. I report them to mods for deletion.

    Selfhosted Mastodon instances, not only Mastodon social, Misskey and forks, friendica…

    Closing registrations would be a must have too. At the moment you can not disable public registrations 😔
