I feel I need to provide my endorsement of apps Croissant and Tapestry for social media engagement. These apps are not new, but new to me.
If you’ve not come across either, then Croissant is a cross platform app for simultaneously sharing to Mastodon, Threads and Bluesky.
I have disabled cross-posting in Micro.Blog using Croissant for posting across the social media platforms. However I would really love to see Croissant grow to support posting to Micro.blog to avoid switching between the apps.
Tapestry is the inverse, pulling multiple feeds into one or more timelines of your choosing, including Micro.Blog. Unlike with RSS apps Tapestry supports personalisation on the different platforms, such as Micro.Blog bookmarks, Mastodon Boosts etc. The app syncs settings and timelines using iCloud, with options to read your entire timeline or custom timelines including content from today or the last hour. This single app has been a game changer to how follow people, using a single app rather than switching between them.
