So I don't know whether this is viable. But I'm sort of thinking that I could maybe create a userscript to schedule posts to the various sites I use. I'm not exactly a programmer though. I'm sort of still learning to use JavaScript. Is this possible? And if it is does anyone know how I could go about trying to do this? Provided this isn't a huge project and I'm just biting off more than I can chew of course.

Ofc it's possible. For someone with limited experience you need to hope the target sites have open API's. Search on Google for the docs, If they are big we'll known sites ask chatgpt to give some examples. If they don't have open apis then you need to do some more digging. Does their site or app us an api they you can figure out? Finally if those fail resort to browser automation. You probably want to be using node/ts.
Wow, this seems like a much bigger project than I anticipated. Thanks for the advice, but I don't think I'll be able to try this.
