Hi, community :)

Thank you for your help on each post, it really makes me want to create more and more stuff โค๏ธ

A few new updates for Postiz, but just a small recap:

Postiz is a social media scheduling tool supporting 19 social media channels:

Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, X, Threads, BlueSky, Mastodon, YouTube, Pinterest, Dribbble, Slack, Discord, Warpcast, Lemmy, Telegram, VK, Nostr.

https://github.com/gitroomhq/postiz-app/

(20k+ stars, thank you for all the love ๐Ÿš€)

What's new:

  • Create a PDF carousel in LinkedIn. Upload pictures as normal, and then check the "Post as images carousel." It will convert the picture to a PDF in the background and schedule it as a Carousel.
  • Multi-language support - We added tons of languages and support for RTL. I used Lingo.dev for that, which was super helpful!
  • Post finisher - added post finisher to BlueSky, X, and Threads, it will add post in the end quoting the 1st post and tell people to follow you :)
  • Mastodon custom URL (self-hosted only)
  • Dub shortlinking custom URL (self-hosted only)
  • Disable image compression in the client (self-hosted only)
  • Created a Chrome extension that overrides your LinkedIn / X, post modal with Postiz to be more productive.

Our amazing mod egelhaus added tons of YouTube videos on the docs website on installing different providers / installing Postiz.

What else would you like to see in Postiz?

Yay thanks!!

Just for your information but TikTok does support internal use for its API. So while the platform Postiz may allow TikTok posting, self hosting Postiz TikTok integration is not exactly true in certain cases.

[โ€“] nevodavid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

We added all the providers possible, yes, TikTok has a stricter way of giving access to their APIs. I still think it's possible, might take some time.

Would love to see a pixelfed implementation

[โ€“] nevodavid@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I have checked their docs many times, it's either very bad or it's not possible

How does auth work?

Do I have to grant a third party permission to post to my account? Or do I have it auth with my credentials locally?

[โ€“] nevodavid@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You need to full in your app keys in the .env. Then only the token (oauth2) is being saved

[โ€“] jagged_circle@feddit.nl -1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I dont know what that means. Do the oauth creds get shared with a third party or no?

The point is that most of these solutions require me letting an app post on my behalf. I don't want that.
