Hey all, found a fun little undocumented quirk about the bsky image blob service. Apparently, when you do a thumbnail link embed, if the link thumbnail image is over 1MB it will fail. Incredibly frustrating lol. Will get a fix out in a few days, sorry for the inconvenience.

If you tried to sign up, it should work now. Turnstile (the captcha system) wasn't loading properly because of a silly config error. I apologize, I was testing some nice UX signup form validation stuff and turned off the captcha to speed up testing (as environment sniffing doesn't exist).

Guess who cutdown their sql queries down two magnitudes? Pretty thrilled.

support for quote posts AND FEEDS???? AND LISTS????! WILD.

Okay for real for real, I'm pretty happy with this now.

Last surprise: * Editing of posts has improved immensely * DB/SQL queries been optimized * Improved accessibility (you can use a keyboard to navigate post edits, etc) * Editing existing alt text and posts places the cursor in the right position * More QOL features * Add processing text

Fixed a problem with long usernames being unable to sign up for the site. Was accidentally capping a magnitude too small, thus preventing signups inadvertently. Should be working now if you try again.

SkyScheduler supports quote posts now. There's a separate field for it too. See example:

Oh yeah, if you tried SkyScheduler in the past and ran into issues with image uploading, I'm happy to say I've swapped out the system to a brand new one that actually properly compresses your images in about 1/5th of the time the old one did. It also usually works the first time around now.

HTMX is great, except for when you need to send a json payload. Then it's pain.

It only took 6 hrs and was a complete fucking nightmare, but you can now edit your alt text for any alt text ready embeds (which is just only images). I entered a fugue state while writing the code, I have no idea what the fuck I just did. The example output: bsky.app/profile/sock...

This doesn’t mean I am completely stopping, it’s just the site will likely not be getting any major new feature updates near the cadence we had in the last few weeks. I’ll be patching the site of any bugs, and other updates in the meantime.

This is probably going to be the last update for awhile, the site is running fairly smoothly, and I’m happy. Here are the last changes: * Thumbnail generation in editor has been improved * Post editing is more responsive and properly focuses elements * The site no longer prompts upon closing

More Updates: * We now match the same video file size as BSky (100MB) * Greatly sped up and improved image compression * Fix some wacky css upon handling hovers over delete objects * Fixed the data card for file uploads (see img) * Improved client side memory usage * Fixed URL boxes

Features in the last 2 weeks: * videos * new alt text handling * lots of bug fixes * gif support * more reposting options * alternative PDS support * link embed support * autocomplete handles * add tos docs * post delete confirmation * improved layouts * preloading * nice error msgs * tons of QOL

Wow look at this new alt text dialog box, it's so much easier to do and it also supports @ mentions to people! That's neat. And so handy!

Hey what's up we support animated gifs now. If it doesn't work for you, clear your cache.

I turned off all invite code requirements until next year. Have a great end to your 2025 <3

Now you no longer have to switch back and forth between bluesky and skyscheduler to be able to find the correct mention of an user. Just simply start trying to tag them in any of the code block editors and it'll show suggestions to autocomplete for you. #bluesky #bsky #bskytools #bskyresources

For anyone that's been getting an "unknown error occurred" upon sign up, I accidentally fed the "signup success" msg as an error state, which is not handled. Which makes the error unknown & shows an red message. But the signup actually worked, the site just accidentally said it didn't. whoops.

Also, I'm aware tagging people kinda sucks and requires you to go look up the username ahead of time on bsky to see what it is. I'm gonna work on trying to add a @ mention feature to the text editor soon.

So we now support videos, you can schedule posts with embedded videos. Our file size limits are different from Bluesky (we're 30MB less), but this is here now. Also fixed up some code that probably should have been fixed forever ago.

I've been working a lot on this recently. Fixed some issues with signups, if you had problems before this should be resolved. Additionally I tackled a lot of QOL fixes. I hope this makes things easier to use <3 Thanks for using SkyScheduler!

I just added support for link embeds into posts. You can now include a link via an embed card like below and it will automatically be added to your post. I also fixed a couple of other QOL bugs too! I hope people enjoy the updates. <3

Hello! I have updates! 1. Error messages are now human/furry readable instead of confusing gibberish 2. We now support other PDSes! If you need to change your PDS, log into your account and you can change it via the settings screen.

If people were having issues resetting their passwords, we found that user's DM permissions were too restrictive to send their reset links to. This is now resolved if you end up following this account (as the bot will send out the reset links one way).

Hey #furry #artists: Don’t want to think about complicated things such as post times or reachability? This tool below is free and open source. I made it to handle posting my art backlog in the future. Schedule posts & retweet them automatically! Comms opening? Events? Raffles? You got it!

Our upstream provider had some issues with requests timing out. This should be resolved now.

Couple of optimization improvements last night will speed up login times and rendering when not logged in. Also extends the max window of scheduled reposts from every 24hrs to up to every 72hrs (this may be adjusted down in the future based on performance/need). Thanks for using SkyScheduler <3

We now support requesting password resets! Forgot your skyscheduler.work account password? You can request it on the website, and you'll receive a DM with your password reset URL! It's simple and easy!

Couple updates! * Images will now post in their correct aspect ratios, no more awkward borders! * Made Image Content Labels easier to apply (less prone to making a mistake) * Fixed resetting alt text on edit * Made image file data more visible * Improved image error messages * Fixed removing images

You can now edit posts by clicking on them in the sidebar!

Currently we are invite only. Invites will periodically be dropped on this account, which you can use to sign up. Once an invite code is exhausted it will be deleted from this thread.
