    What's a good "scheduler" for Mastodon/Fediverse posts? Like I write 3-4 posts in advance, and schedule them ahead of time?

    @jerome I use @moshidon android client, each post has scheduling option. It's not good for reading quote posts (yet) but maybe worthwhile for writing your posts?

      @deborahh @jerome tusky has this option as well. The scheduling itself is a Mastodon feature and happens on the server, so it doesn't matter if you're offline at the time the post should go online.

          @jerome if you're only interested in Mastodon (or other Fediverse platforms) and don't mind self hosting: fedisuite

              A shell script;
              cron;
              and Toot.

              Mastodon CLI client

              favicon

              PyPI (pypi.org)

              But, be transparent about what you are doing and why.

              This isn't twitter or linkedin where you can drive by spam your audience and expect them to be grateful.

              It's a place that expects and rewards personal connections and a bot posting a marketing pitch is going to get ignored at best and irritate people at worst.

                @jerome I've been using this free service for a while: https://plan.fedilab.app/

                It uses the scheduling feature of your Mastodon server and does not rely on any external service. I consider that a win.

                  @jerome

                  Mastodon itself can do that. It's just not exposed in the web UI. So, use a Mastodon client that has an UI for it, like Tusky on Android.

                    @laprice I’ve been here since 2022, the tone policing is not required

                    Thank you for the project suggestion!

                        @jerome very few clients implement this. I guess that's why nobody knows about it 🙂

                            @jerome I use @pachli, which supports post scheduling right in the post editor itself.
