@FediTips@social.growyourown.services seems silly that it’s built in, but only accessible through a 3rd-party app

Yeah, there's no official interface for it. I think it's just because the developers have limited resources and other things have been higher priorities.

Friendica can schedule and publish posts. No third-party tools required.

@FediTips Another 3rd-party Android app with built-in scheduling is @pachli , which is also great in other regards

@FediTips @pluvialgeist There is an official and documented API interface. Just the frontend doesn’t make it accessible.
