I built an open-source social media scheduling, and it blew up 💣
Hi, my name is Nevo. I built Postiz, an open-source social media scheduling tool.
In the past, I worked for Novu, an open-source notification infrastructure tool, and with my help, it grew to 31k stars in two years.
I could replicate the same thing if I built my own open-source; since I created Postiz on September 1, 2024, it has grown to almost 14k stars.
Is the market big? open-source it
Scheduling tools have existed for almost 20 years, but no open-source solution exists. As you can imagine, the market is super saturated - thousands of tools do the same thing.
So that said, "Please make another one open-sourced," and it exploded.
The amount of interest in the tool skyrocketed.
I launched it on Product Hunt and got 1st product of the day/week/month.
More than 2000 people voted for the product 🚀
Too fast of a growth
The community grows so fast that I can handle it, as I am bombarded with support tickets, but so many lovely people help other people, which is insane! I love open-source.
I created an excellent Discord bot that opens a popup to add all the details and then uses AI format for the title!
It also follows up with messages and tags me if I haven't answered them.
Postiz is part of the open-open-source
There is no weird license for enterprises or withholding SSO for enterprises.
Everything is 100% free (apache-2)!
Any help you can give me would be super tremendous! 🥹
I would be happy to get a star if possible ❤️
