Interesting, do instgram and facebook etc allow third party clients?
- pvarangot 4y agoNo, but unlike Twitter their advertiser tools are at least halfway decent.
- erk__ 4y agoOne of the tools used is Buffer [0], and they seem to support both Instagram and Facebook, and it seems that they are going to continue with Twitter as well. [0]: https://buffer.com https://buffer.com Note: They seem to support "Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, LinkedIn, and Google Business Profile"
- ceejayoz 4y agoBuffer's not a third-party client (in the sense of Tweetbot etc.), though. You can't consume or publish to a personal Facebook profile or an individual Instagram account; it's restricted to Facebook Business Pages, Groups, and Instagram Business accounts. It does compete with the Meta Business Suite, though.
- zimpenfish 4y agoBuffer's support for non-business Instagram is "set a reminder for you to post by hand" because Instagram removed scheduled posting ability a good long while back. I suspect their non-business Facebook support is similar. I know I was a heavy user until (uh) 5? years ago when Instagram and Facebook posting was nerfed into uselessness.
