@weekinfediverse Hello!

Did you miss PostyBirb releaser?
They have regular pre-release almost every week, which is actually stable for full usage.

I think he might be on to something. Some optional non-chronological feed would be nice.
Disagree with the idea of "community managers" putting notes underneath posts though.

@weekinfediverse@mitra.social didn’t make it lol

@crse There is no mention of Fediverse or ActivityPub in the project description on GitHub and their website is not working for me (Cloudflare error).

As a general rule, if the developer does not prioritise the Fediverse, the app will not be included.

@weekinfediverse PostyBirb supports Mastodon, Misskey, Firefish, GotoSocial, Pixelfed, Pleroma, Friendica.

The dev regularly adds various social media and platforms that were used by artist.

The website itself is outdated and does not list all supported platform.

@weekinfediverse I believe this software holds its value for fediverse, especially for fediverse art community.

This is the only one scheduling and manager for various fedi server.

Please consider its inclusion. Thank you.
