A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

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 :)

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 😔

Do you support automated posting from RSS feeds?

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.

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

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

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 :)

an open-source social media scheduling tool.

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

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.

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!
