Hi everyone, I have some exciting new things about Postiz!

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.

Here is what's new:

  • New Editor - The Previous editor was clunky, with many hacky hooks, real technical debt, I spent two days (monk mode), and created something awesome, UI and UX also changed.

  • Overall better UI / UX - showing the amount of characters/characters left.

  • OIDC fixed, working well now :)

  • Sets, you can define a template of a message that will be posted later

  • X - added option to select who can reply to your post, post to an X community

  • BlueSky - Upload videos to BlueSky

  • Integrations - you can work with an integration such as Heygen to generate content for you; you can see more here.

  • Drag and drop pictures directly on the editor now shows progress in "%"

  • Alt and thumbnails for media - This is the initial release, which currently allows you to add alt and thumbnails for pictures, but these changes are not yet reflected on the backend.

Everything as usual is available on the open-source :)

 

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

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.
