Płacisz za Buffer, Hootsuite albo Later? Stop! ❌

Odkryłem rewelacyjne narzędzie open-source Postiz 🤯, które instalujesz na własnym VPS i zapominasz o abonamentach. Pełna kontrola i automatyzacja w jednym.

🎬 W nowym wideo pokazuję, jak postawić je w kilka minut. Banalnie proste!

I found huge thing for SMM managers and content creators. It can optimize your time working with social media by 100%.

Most AI content agents stop at the absolute worst moment:

"Here is your draft."

Then the manual grind begins. You copy the text, open X, fix the formatting, upload the images, schedule the time, and repeat it for LinkedIn or Threads. You’re either burning time on manual clicks or paying for another SaaS subscription like Buffer or Hootsuite just to bridge the gap.

I recently found an open-source project called Postiz (by Gitroom) that solves this exact "last mile" problem.

It’s a self-hosted, programmable social media scheduling and publishing architecture.

The real power here isn't just having another social dashboard - it’s what happens when you plug it directly into your AI agent pipelines via their API:

-> End-to-End Automation: Your agent researches a topic, generates the drafts, and handles the multi-platform formatting.

-> Human-in-the-Loop Approval: You review the curated queue in a single dashboard.

-> Automated Distribution: Once approved, Postiz handles the native publishing, asset rendering, and scheduling.

This is exactly what mature AI content infrastructure should look like. The goal isn’t just to generate content at scale; the goal is to ship it without the operational friction.

If you're tired of being the manual middleman between your LLM outputs and your social channels, look into building a proper publishing pipeline.

F*cking Beautiful.....

Postiz Github setup locally with my Video Intelligence system.

Herme's @NousResearch is my Zero Human Company.

With my social agent that now is agent integrated with my internal clip software (over 3,000 clips fully enriched) and uses my own custom hook and copy system.

and now.....

Can completely automate, schedule and report on the A/B all the way to Z tests being done.

Everything goes into Trial Reels first to prove out combinations before then going to main.

@wickedguro well done.... can't wait to run this.

Hermes is now integrating the MCP tools right now and then I'm going to test out the first real run.

What a day and age we live in.

Buffer charges $30/month for 5 channels.
Hootsuite starts at $99/month.

Both are social media schedulers. Both are vendor subscriptions that sit between your content and your audience.

Postiz is an open-source alternative. 29.1K GitHub stars.

Setup is Docker Compose on any $5 VPS. Your scheduling data and content library stay on your own infrastructure.

What Postiz does:

→ Schedules posts across 20+ social media platforms from one interface
→ AI-powered content generation and post suggestions built in
→ Analytics dashboard with per-post engagement metrics
→ Team collaboration with approval workflows and role-based access
→ Media asset library with drag-and-drop scheduling calendar
→ RSS feed integration for sourcing and scheduling content
→ Calendar view for content planning across platforms

Why we run it self-hosted:

At Graplify we manage multiple brand accounts across multiple platforms. Paying per channel or per seat compounds fast. Self-hosting Postiz gives our team full access, unlimited channels, and approval workflows, for the cost of a $5 VPS.

The approval workflow is the piece that matters for team operations. Drafts sit in review. Approvals push to schedule. No external SaaS login required for the whole team.

Self-hosted cost: $0.

Buffer: $30/month.
Hootsuite: $99/month.
Postiz: free on your own server.

AGPL-3.0 licensed.

very close to completing the yapwriter flow.

I just hosted postiz(open source social media management) on railway. It has an API I can connect to yapwriter to schedule and post for you.

Also has a dashboard where you can see posts and analytics.

Thanks to the open source geniuses who created @getpostiz and the genius who added a @Railway pack.

Now once I can get the various social media apps settled, I can complete the yapwriter flow

braindump,
choose raw/AI mode,

It has support for about 18 social media platforms and it's easy to add more

Tas brīdis, kad skaties uz rīku un domā - nu, jā.. kārtējie 29$/m, 7-day trial, bet tad pamani rindiņu

Alternatively you can deploy Postiz open-source on your cloud for free... from Docker image

Buffer vs Postiz

SWITCH for most solo and small-team scheduling. ~74% parity on the board. AGPL, self-host, ships weekly. Credit @wickedguro

Agencies with heavy SLA and partner support may still want Buffer.

@oliverhenry Hook it up with the Postiz OPEN SOURCE version (one-click deployment if you use Coolify) and boom, you've got yourself an almost free setup (except the OpenAI image generation costs, but that's negligible)

Comme je ne voulais pas payer tous les mois juste pour programmer mes Tweets, j'avais commencé à coder une petite app en 2024. Je n'avais pas fini mon MVP. Et puis, je découvre début 2025 l'app opensource Postiz que j'ai hébergé dans mon homelab 😍. Bon je retourne au lit 😅

from 7.5K to 2.2K daily clicks is obviously not a great trend, but I wouldn't immediately conclude that SEO is dead

Competition is a pretty obvious variable here too.

Social media schedulers have become ridiculously crowded. I'm seeing tons of social media schedulers getting launched everyday solving the same problem, and the basic feature set has become commoditized.

If you're just another scheduler without a strong wedge, of course organic acquisition is going to get harder.

Postiz by @wickedguro is a good counter example. Instead of building another Buffer clone, he went after open source/self-hosting, 30+ channels, APIs/CLI/MCP, automation, etc. That's an actual product wedge in the current market.

so SEO isn't necessarily dead.

Building a generic SaaS, write 500 articles, wait for Google.. is probably a much worse strategy than it used to be.

Every "best Twitter tools" list is the same paid stack: Buffer at $99 a month, Hypefury at $49, Tweet Hunter, Typefully, on and on. Nobody tells you developers already rebuilt most of it and put it on GitHub for free.

Here are 6 open-source tools that replace the subscriptions, ranked by how ready they are to use today.

1. Postiz — t.co/2V0xU7tyzH
The heavyweight. 30.4k stars, self-hosted, and it names its targets directly in the README: an alternative to Buffer, Hypefury, and Tweet Hunter. Schedule to X plus 10+ networks, AI writing features, analytics, team collaboration, and a full public API for N8N/Make/Zapier automation. It uses official platform-approved OAuth, not scraping, so you're not risking your account. This is the one to install first. AGPL-3.0.

2. Postit — t.co/jnCHyGSD5r
The AI-native pick. An open-source scheduler with an AI copilot that drafts in your brand voice, native publishing to 12 networks, and the part that matters in 2026: a built-in MCP server. That means Claude, Cursor, or ChatGPT can draft, schedule, and publish for you directly. Self-host it or use their cloud. AGPL-3.0.

3. Bluewing — t.co/Yt3rneFncc
The clean, focused one. Schedule to X, LinkedIn, and Bluesky from a single interface, with per-platform content overrides so the same idea gets tuned for each network. Multiple accounts, a month calendar view, queue-based background publishing. No AI bloat, just reliable scheduling. Open source.

4. Post4U — t.co/7JFq2IRIqG (Arjun Nambiar)
The MIT-licensed minimalist. Cross-post and schedule to X, Reddit, Telegram, and Discord from one place, built with FastAPI. Privacy-focused, no tracking, Docker-ready. Small and early, but MIT means you can fork it and do whatever you want. MIT License.

5. social_post — t.co/SFvsAsFSIo
The solo-operator build. A single-user, self-hosted scheduler for X and LinkedIn, built on Next.js and Convex, made explicitly to replace expensive subscription services. If you run one account and just want your posts to go out on time without paying anyone, this is the leanest path.

6. SimplyTweeted — t.co/j0XrrWkR7v
The X-native scheduler. Clean interface, OAuth login, encrypted token storage, and support for posting to Communities. Worth knowing its real limit up front: the free X API tier caps you around 17 scheduled posts per 24 hours. That's an X restriction, not the tool's, and it hits every free scheduler on this list.

One honest note: Postiz is the only mature project here. The rest range from solid to early-stage. That's the tradeoff of the open side. You trade a polished dashboard for owning your data, your keys, and your workflow, with no monthly bill and no account that gets held hostage.

The paid tools all rent you the same features on the same platform every competitor already uses. These hand you the source and walk away.

Save this. Start with Postiz.

✨I replaced all these SaaS with self-hosted/open source apps, mostly running on a ~$100 mini PC with 105 Docker containers:

- Google Photos -> My own self-hosted Immich server (avoids ~$10/mo)
- Dropbox / Google Drive -> My own Nextcloud (avoids ~$10-20/mo)
- 1Password / Bitwarden Cloud -> My own Vaultwarden (avoids ~$3-8/mo)
- Zapier / Make -> My own n8n automation server (avoids ~$20-50/mo)
- Calendly -> My own t.co/LBHTMVAtNJ (avoids ~$10/mo)
- Google Analytics / paid analytics -> My own Plausible + Umami
- Pocket / Raindrop -> My own Karakeep
- YNAB / Monarch -> My own Maybe Finance (avoids ~$10-15/mo)
- DocuSign -> My own DocuSeal (avoids ~$15+/mo)
- Jira / Linear -> My own Plane (avoids ~$10+/mo)
- HubSpot CRM -> My own Twenty CRM (avoids ~$15+/mo)
- Buffer / Hootsuite -> My own Postiz social media scheduler (avoids ~$20+/mo)
- GitHub for private infrastructure -> My own Gitea
- Figma -> My own Penpot (avoids ~$15+/mo)
- Evernote / Notion for quick notes -> My own Memos
- document storage/scanning -> My own Paperless-ngx
- server monitoring -> My own Beszel
- push notifications -> My own ntfy
- Plex -> My own Jellyfin
- audiobook server -> My own Audiobookshelf
- smart home cloud -> My own Home Assistant
- location history -> My own Dawarich
- personal health/fitness tracking -> My own SparkyFitness

And I have a second mini PC just for development where I run code-server, my projects, MCP servers and AI coding agents.

I think I've reached the point where there are some things I still don't want to replace because self-hosting them would be stupid for me:

- Cloudflare for DNS, tunnels and edge infrastructure
- Email delivery
- Off-site backups
- Cloud object storage when I actually need it
- LLM APIs / model providers
- My own GPU cluster

The crazy part is I probably wouldn't have done half of this a few years ago.

AI agents changed the economics of self-hosting.

Installing, configuring, debugging, updating and connecting all this used to cost more in my time than the SaaS subscription.

Now I can have agents help operate the infrastructure too.

I killed 3 monthly subscriptions this week. swapped all of them for free, self-hosted tools I actually run.

1. Home Assistant. Your whole smart home, running locally, no cloud fee. if you own the devices, nothing here phones home and nothing stops working when the internet does. t.co/Jzrn7Fi51M

2. Activepieces. Zapier without the per-task bill. same flow-builder feel, agent native, self-hosted. Replaced the n8n who keep prompting me to pay. t.co/oEH18iqm8g

3. Postiz. Schedule to 28+ channels from one dashboard, minus Buffer/Hootsuite. it's what I run my own posting on now. t.co/95f12yQgRf

each one replaced a bill I was tired of paying. which subscription should I kill next? reply it and I'll test it.

I tested 142 open-source repos so far. Follow to support please!

A few months ago I built an iOS wrapper around Post Bridge but didn’t do much with it (I didn’t want to pay the monthly sub).

But now that I have a locally hosted Postiz instance, I had my agents repurpose the code to post using it and it just works.

@alaajawhareng

Hot take:

Code was never the advantage. Open source proved that years before AI did.

Postiz is the proof. Fully open source, free to self-host, and still hit 2M ARR. Everyone could clone it and nobody did.

Execution was always the product. AI just made that obvious to everyone at once.

每日 AI 工具测评：Postiz

维护多账号的自媒体博主看过来，很多 AI 工具只会帮你写文案，Postiz 可以完成文案写完以后，怎么审核、排期并发到不同平台的功能。

功能：开源 AI 社交媒体运营平台，可以统一管理 X、Instagram、LinkedIn、Reddit、YouTube 等账号，支持内容日历、定时发布、数据分析、团队审核和媒体管理。它还提供 MCP、API 和 n8n 等接口。接入 Codex 或 Claude 后，Agent 可以读取不同平台的字数、媒体和发布规则，生成草稿、创建 X 串推或 Article，再交给人审核和排期。

优势：它真正解决的不是“再生成一段文案”，而是把内容创作之后的发布流程收进一个系统。目前项目约 3.5 万 Star，仍在持续更新，潜力很大，对于同时运营多个账号的人，最实用的是可以围绕同一个选题制作不同平台的版本，并保留人工审核，避免让 AI 直接接管账号。

缺点：Postiz 的核心仍然是排期和发布，AI 并不是它最强的部分。目前 MCP 不能读取和回复评论，所以它还做不了“寻找热点—分析账号—回复互动—复盘增长”的完整运营闭环。自托管也不算轻松，需要配置 PostgreSQL、Redis、Temporal、反向代理以及各个平台的开发者应用。部署对新手小白不是非常友好。另外，项目采用 AGPL-3.0。如果准备二次开发并作为在线服务对外提供，需要提前评估源码开放义务。

推荐指数：★★★★☆

一句话总结：Postiz 更像是给 Codex 配套的“社交媒体发布中台”，不是替你判断选题和增长方向的 AI 运营总监。适合需要运营多个平台、多个账号，并且愿意折腾自托管的人；如果你只玩一个 X 账号，而且最需要的是选题、复盘和高质量互动，它会显得有点重。

そう｜Claude CodeのX運用で月800万インプ
@so_ainsight

これって本質的には、「SNS管理ツールに月額を払う」から「自分のインフラとして所有する」へのシフト。

・Buffer：5チャンネル年$360（約5.7万円）
・Hootsuite：年$2,388（約38万円）
・Sprout Social：年$2,988（約47.5万円）

これがPostizをセルフホストすれば0円。チャンネル数・投稿数・チームメンバー数すべて無制限を永年で使い続けられる。

しかもAGPL-3.0でコードが完全公開されているので、自社用途に合わせて改造もできる。SaaS依存からの卒業ルートが用意されている。

I've installed something called Postiz on my server, its basically Buffer but free and open-source.

Could be a really powerful tool for small content creators to have a cost-effective scheduling solution, excited to try it out!

Mark Cuda
@therealmc92

I agree but think it's good for Google or ai search or people wanting to go deep. I'd say it depends on if it's a little side project or a serious app you intend to scale.

You can run something like postiz (open source) on a VM with Hermes and have it take your work on the app and posts and help you automate some brand content so you at least have a home for your serious apps on X, without committing to some major new profile to manage.
