Posting

• Posts, replies, quotes, reposts, likes, bookmarks (with folders), pinned posts, pinned replies, highlights, @mentions and hashtags.
• Editing posts, polls (with a photo on each choice), places and long-form articles.
• Scheduled threads of up to 26 posts. They publish together; failed threads retry, and permanent failures return the whole thread to drafts. Each account can queue 100 future posts.
• Who can reply: everyone, followed accounts, verified accounts or mentioned accounts.
• Images, GIFs and video (converted with ffmpeg), alt text and content warnings on media.
• Sticker packs made by staff, picked from a button beside the composer’s emoji button.
• Branded hashtags: for a set time, liking a post with the hashtag plays a custom Lottie animation and the hashtag shows an emoji.
• Conversation cards with up to four hashtag buttons, prefilled post text, a title and one image, GIF or video.
• YouTube links become player cards that play from youtube-nocookie.com.
