I’ve made an app that makes it possible to schedule a post in Lemmy at an arbitrary time. It’s available at https://schedule.lemmings.world and can be used by people from any instance.

Let me know what you think!

P.S. This post was made using the app!

Edit: And it’s open source!

    That’s the main reason I don’t use any apps. I don’t think there is a real need to suspect the official UI. If one doesn’t trust the instance admins, then they should rather migrate.

    In case of an application running on a server, there is no reliable way to make sure that the source being shared is the source that is deployed. As I said, I don’t think you have any ulterior motives. I’m only trying to raise awareness around a specific problem with Lemmy. Perhaps I should create a separate post about this in relevant communities, if it hasn’t been done already.

      Perhaps. Hopefully OAuth is supported soon. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not particularly fond of having access to people’s credentials as well because if I make a mistake and accidentally leak anything, a shitstorm awaits me.
