It seems simple to implement, and it might lead to more engagement (for the platforms that care about that).

Instead, people rely on third-party tools to accomplish scheduling on Reddit and Instagram. Why is that? Is there some issue I’m not considering?

    My guesses would be:

    1. If you’re able to use tools to just post at a certain time, you might be less likely to engage with the platform.
    2. They can upsell you on their paid API (which is probable how corporations would prefer to operate anyways).
