SimpleSocial


With the additions of X, TikTok, and a new tutorial video, I think it's ready for new users in 2024. I would have given it a 4-star review prior to this update. This is the first time I've ever left a review for one of my own projects, but I think this is a rare case where it's actually necessary.


















It's ready...
