Maybe there is a solution I haven’t seen yet, but is there currently a way to cross post your updates on your #Pleroma (or Rebased) instance to other social networks (like X, Minds, etc…)?

Would be cool to be able to use your Fedi instance as a hub for all your social media updates.

@steve @alex if I'm not mistaken, quitter.se had it, but it's not possible anymore due to how hellbent Elon is on making twitter as close as possible

Det har säkerligen inte undgått någon att alla dessa sociala medier som finns ute i samhället bara blir fler och fler. Twitter, Facebook och Instagram är bara några av alla de alternativ som finns...

@fzorb @alex I believe you can still pay for API on X. Minds is moving towards deeper Fediverse interoperability and Meta recently announced plans to do the same.

I guess I’m not as much of a purist as some. I see those other legacy platforms as a place to tease shorter / cleaner versions of long form content and ideas I ultimately house here, on my own instance and / or on my blog. If I get shut down on those platforms, I still have my main hub that I own and control.

Even though this is my hub, its not the only place I publish & share ideas exclusively, and certainly not where all of my audience and followers are.

@steve @alex I see, but due to these API prices, no one has an incentive to make a bridge. I am looking forward to see meta defederate a bunch of instances because of their naughty opinions or even defederating with the rest of the fediverse, like Gab did

@fzorb @alex I was thinking more along the lines of connecting your own developer account to your instance (either personal or community).

Simply add your API credentials in the admin area and a share checkbox option shows up in the WYSIWYG editor with an option to cross-post to various profiles on platforms you have connected to.
