Lemmy Schedule - app for scheduling posts and getting notified of new posts (schedule.lemmings.world)

My Lemmy Schedule app now includes the option to get notified of new posts in a specific community!

In case you haven't heard about the app before, here's what other things it can do:

  • schedule a post and post it to multiple communities
    • you can upload an image as well and choose between uploading to your Lemmy instance or to Imgur
  • create a recurring post that gets posted at a specific date and time (especially useful for daily/weekly/monthly/end-of-month threads)
  • schedule pinning and unpinning of posts (instance and community)
    • the pinning and unpinning can be specified as part of creating a post
  • the aforementioned notifications about unread posts from a specific community (useful for mods)
    • can be also set using a recurring schedule, so you can get the report daily/weekly/monthly etc.

To learn more, visit the !schedule@lemmings.world community.

P.S. It's open source and can be self-hosted using docker!

I've used this tool from the developer's instance. It works as intended. I haven't tried the new release.

I was skeptical that it would work to be honest. Particularly as I am a kbin user modding a kbin community. However, I was able to create an alt account on a lemmy instance and give the account mod status in the kbin community. So I use that account to post. I would be nice if kbin could be directly supported but I understand there are ongoing issues with the kbin API

lack-thereof. For time being, the workaround has been functional.

Logging in to the interface now, I can't see any of the previous scheduled posts I've made which did used to be visible. Maybe the new version is a breaking change from prior. Which is fine with me. This kind of thing will obviously have an experimental nature to it. I am hoping that going forward the previously-scheduled posts will be visible because it is convenient.

My review is five stars ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ for the application. Thank you @rikudou for building and sharing this very useful application.
