My Lemmy Schedule app now includes the option to get notified of new posts in a specific community!

In case you haven’t heard about the app before, here’s what other things it can do:

  • schedule a post and post it to multiple communities
    • you can upload an image as well and choose between uploading to your Lemmy instance or to Imgur
  • create a recurring post that gets posted at a specific date and time (especially useful for daily/weekly/monthly/end-of-month threads)
  • schedule pinning and unpinning of posts (instance and community)
    • the pinning and unpinning can be specified as part of creating a post
  • the aforementioned notifications about unread posts from a specific community (useful for mods)
    • can be also set using a recurring schedule, so you can get the report daily/weekly/monthly etc.

P.S. It’s open source and can be self-hosted using docker!

    This is awesome! Could we use this to subscribe to a post to receive updates on edits and new comments?

      Not currently, but getting notifications for new comments might be nice. The edits are not really possible in any sane way, I would have to store every version to see if it changed. Or I would have to store the last time you visited. Neither of which I really want to do, the app doesn’t store any permanent data about its users, everything is always stored in the queued job only and then forgotten once the job runs.
