Any instance, not a fixed list

You give us your instance host and we connect there. That is the whole point of the fediverse, and a tool that only supports mastodon.social has missed it.

Hashtags actually do work here

Mastodon has no algorithmic feed, so tags are the discovery mechanism rather than decoration. Two to four well-chosen ones matter more here than thirty anywhere else.

Replies and mentions automated

Full reply automation, with the same restraint as elsewhere — an audience this allergic to marketing is exactly the one where scoped rules matter.

Connected in under a minute

  1. 01

    Connect the account

    One OAuth handshake. We never see or store a password — only a token you can revoke from either end.

  2. 02

    Set the brand voice

    Tone, audience and the words you never use. Two minutes, and everything generated afterwards inherits it.

  3. 03

    Queue and let it run

    Posts publish on their own and replies go out in your voice while you do something else.

Mastodon questions

Which instances are supported?

Any. You supply your instance host and authorise Mediux there over OAuth, so a niche self-hosted server works the same as a large public one.

What is the character limit?

500 by default, though instances can configure their own. Mediux uses 500 as the working limit.

Can it auto-reply?

Yes — replies and mentions are both supported, with scoped rules and rotating variations.

Will automated posting annoy people there?

Scheduling will not; being obviously automated will. Mastodon's culture punishes broadcast marketing harder than any other network, which is a reason to use the brand voice settings properly rather than a reason to stay away.

Does it support content warnings?

Yes — posts can carry a content warning, which is part of posting respectfully on the network.

Put Mastodon on autopilot.

Connect it free, alongside every other channel you publish to. No card, and you can revoke access whenever you like.
