Postiz
Schedule social posts you host. Buffer and Hootsuite without the channel/seat meter.
The problem
Buffer charges per channel. Hootsuite charges per user and starts at three figures. Postiz is AGPL social scheduling already in the catalog (Next.js, Nest, Redis).

FAQ
- Which networks?
- Postiz lists X, Instagram, LinkedIn, Bluesky, and more. Connect the two you actually use. Do not build every OAuth app on day one.
