Mastodon Scheduler
Repping.AI can schedule posts to a Mastodon account on your own instance. Mastodon's API has its own scheduled_at option that must be at least 5 minutes ahead. Repping.AI connects with your instance URL and an access token. Mastodon publishing is live, with visibility, content warnings and a first reply.
