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 :)

Great to hear, thank you!

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 😔

Great news!

HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com on 10 Jan 23:47 next collapse

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.

Blaze@sopuli.xyz on 10 Jan 23:51 collapse

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

HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com on 11 Jan 00:07 collapse

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.

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 11 Jan 07:31 next collapse

That’s a bug. We need dedupes in our feeds

HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com on 11 Jan 16:22 collapse

sorry was not talking dupes just many posts like pictures of the same type or 6 news articles in a row or whatnot.

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 11 Jan 16:31 next collapse

How is that not a duplicate?

HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com on 11 Jan 17:54 collapse

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.

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 11 Jan 18:13 collapse

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.

HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com on 11 Jan 18:23 collapse

sigh. im no sure why my initial thing is not clear. I was saying it would be great if posts from a community was spread out so that when going through your feed you see a greater vareity rather than seeing them clumped up. this is not about not wanting to see particular things. A cat community will have cat pictures. if I did not want to see them I could block the community from all. but I like cat pictures as much as the next person. pets are cute. if posts are put by one person all at the same time though then you get a bunch in a row as opposed to intersped between communities. So the tool from the original post seemed cool and I am hoping folks use them if so inclined. thats all.

otter@lemmy.ca on 12 Jan 07:03 collapse

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.

Blaze@sopuli.xyz on 11 Jan 11:14 collapse

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

HubertManne@moist.catsweat.com on 11 Jan 16:21 collapse

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 :)

Ulrich@feddit.org on 11 Jan 00:11 next collapse

Do you support automated posting from RSS feeds?

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 11 Jan 07:30 collapse

This, but with some aggregation and filtering.

an open-source social media scheduling tool.

Pshaw! Didn’t you read the tin? It’s the ultimate open source social media scheduling tool.

corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca on 11 Jan 01:18 next collapse

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 are verboten in stage/prod.
jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 11 Jan 07:29 collapse

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

kat@orbi.camp on 15 Jan 03:01 collapse

What do you mean? Also, since when is npm bad to use in production?

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 15 Jan 03:55 collapse

Lol since forever? It doesn’t verify the authenticity of anything it downloads, so its vulnerable to supply chain attacks.

Pip and crates has the same problem.

Maven is the only programing language package manager I know of that does. Otherwise, OS package managers like apt are secure, od course.

kat@orbi.camp on 15 Jan 14:57 collapse

Sure but plenty of processes to make it workable exist. Companies like Microsoft, Netflix and parts of Google rely on NPM (firsthand experience at all these).

So it sounds kind of insane to say nom can’t be used in production.

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 15 Jan 16:42 collapse

They’re exposing themselves to risk. Fortunately for them, they dont care about protecting the data of their customers.

kat@orbi.camp on 15 Jan 19:09 collapse

If you say so

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 11 Jan 07:34 next collapse

Gross. It uses AI to publish bullshit.

Do not want.

otter@lemmy.ca on 12 Jan 07:00 next collapse

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

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 12 Jan 15:45 collapse

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.

Bali@lemmy.world on 12 Jan 07:21 next collapse

It’s not Gross because that feature is optional.

jagged_circle@feddit.nl on 12 Jan 14:52 collapse

Except it harms our ecosystem?

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.

labbbb2@thelemmy.club on 12 Jan 10:12 collapse

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!
