It is free. Will it be free for ever? How will you make money out of this?

It depends how many people are using the system. At the moment is fairly cheap so I'm not going to charge anyone anything. In the future the cost will depend on the file storage and the video/audio processing time. That's what rises the price in GCP at the moment.

Automated social media is part of what is wrong with the world. Automation is not social

Sorry, I'll repeat myself with the comment below:

Sorry, but I don't agree with this. I did this platform for myself because (a) I have a podcast and (b) I share somehow often articles and coding tips. For the podcast I stopped doing it because it took me lot of time just to prepare an episode and publish it on all the social networks. With the blogging is the same. I write the article but then I have to spend 30 mins writing posts and running email campaigns. Also most of the readers of my blog are from the states so I had to stay till late in the evening to post stuff. I'm very glad that this is now automated.

This looks quite useful for scheduling promotions e.g. a video stream going live. Though that'd quickly end with certain accounts being just announcing bots, which isn't the point of social media
