Okay, there’s a frustrating backstory that I won’t bore y’all with, but in this case, my Lemmy-mates have suggested that I should share image-content more slowly, rather than do roundups like this.

To explain: I personally hate withholding content when I have a load of some resource to share. I feel like a fraud, an a-hole, a userer, and all that stuff…

Yet I’ve been told repeatedly that it’s better to just (in my words, ‘act like a drone’) drip the content, and yes, it’s not hard to see the logistical point, but… bah.

I guess, end of the day, I always like to include something interesting about my posts, and it would be harder to do that via the “drip” posting method, which… pretty much circles back to why I post the way I do, which is to aim for roundups.

Bah… Baa-Ram-Ewe!

    Thanks for the reply, and oolala, that scheduler sounds groovy! Main concerns-- 1) as it needs my ID & PW to login, I’m naturally a bit wary. Do we know how safe this tool is?

    1. I almost always upload images when I post, and that’s led to major problems at this point. For example, Imgur has proved worse than useless in the long run, and some days my own instance (lemm.ee) simply won’t accept image uploads.

    So I think I’d need to pre-upload my images somewhere else, but I haven’t found the right place just yet. I suppose I might test out Google Drive at some point, but the file-name system is ridiculous. Look at the link at the bottom of my post here: https://lemm.ee/post/53557900

      Oh boy. Well at least you can always obscure it with [text to click of a more reasonable length](the super long URL).
