I know that there should be tools to make it easier to publish content to Twitter/Bluesky/Mastodon, without doing the work thrice. Do you know a good one? Can you share your experience with using them? Thanks! I hope the new platforms are not gonna get ditched immediately…
Edit: Wow I didn’t expect that the solutions were often expensive and complex tools (with way too much “AI”).
@LegoBrickOnFire Well if you are using Buffer then keep using it - that’s a start - (you can add a Mastodon channel) - Later social (is that later.com?) - Whats the website ? we can easily check. Honestly until (and yes I know I bang on) brands really learn the value of Owned media (which if you are using your own domain - then ActivityPub stuff is really something you own) - then they won’t understand the value of Activitypub. - I cringe everytime I see a brand/organisation Fediverse account not using its own domain. If you want them to not screw up - then I recommend a combination of their own server on their own domain and actually making an effort to engage on the topic area (without being spammy)
I will remember that. For now I don’t think I will suggest self-hosting a mastodon instance (that’s what you are suggesting, right?) because we are a small non-profit and the less complexity, the better :)
@LegoBrickOnFire Ok you have really tipped my interest - Where are you located and are you a #nonprofit or a #charity ? - Feel free to DM me details if you don’t want to post publically. I think your situation is really very typical - I’m interested in learning about your tech stack and how you approach things - This is a project I’ve discussed with a few partners already.
