Selfhosted

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.

Postiz is an open-source social media scheduling tool that is similar to traditional ones: Buffer, Hootsuite, SproutSocial, etc.

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

Postiz supports:

Key features:

  • Schedule for nine social media platforms (Threads, Pinterest, Facebook, TikTok, Reddit, LinkedIn, Dribbble, YouTube, Instagram.)

  • Fundamental analytics for almost all social media platforms.

  • AI Features: Copilots, AI Auto-complete, Canva-like editor.

  • Team support: Invite your team members to manage social media.

  • Generic Email Provider & Easier installation experience (drop the default Resend and add a nodemailer option!)

  • There are lots of improvements for the docker / docker-compose. It's much easier to deploy everything!

  • Added Bluesky, Mastodon, Slack and Discord channels!

  • Add multiple options for upload files (locally / R2) - working on S3.

  • Improve the refresh token mechanism (even for more complicated ones like Facebook and Instagram)

  • Invite to a team has significant fixes but will be refactored.

What's next:

  • Postiz is a company run by one person and contributors. Accessing all the support tickets (especially installation) is difficult, so I will focus all my efforts on making installation easier.

  • Productivity - many things feel bad when posting, like selecting multiple images and pasting images directly into the editor.

  • Basic SSO for the self-hosters, and more advanced ones like Azure AD and Okta for the enterprise.

  • Public API (unfortunately, I decided to make this feature paid; I need to make money somehow :/ )

  • Tagging brands on Instagram

  • Segmenting accounts into customers

  • Tagging people on multiple platforms

  • Tagging posts for easier searches

  • Auto-plug features, like automatic repost / retweet.

No support for any of the free social media platforms like Lemmy...

I discovered the platform today :D Should def have an integration for it, I hope it's not too complicated. Most of the platforms in the system are oAuth2

Implementing mastodon.social instead of proper Mastodon, implementing no other fedi software – this scheduler has much potential/work ahead

I guess they need to do some refactoring, as all the other supported platforms will do fine with hardcoded domains.

Yes, has most platforms are oAuth2 it's an easy implementation. But I think it would be really cool to have those platforms too!

I see Mastodon?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)
