The last native publisher: finishing the Postiz consolidation
Medium's native integration was a museum exhibit. A browser bridge, an article whose body is a URL, and minus 1,603 lines.

Dark mode in an afternoon when your CSS is already tokens (and the false alarm that wasn't)
A whole dark theme by redefining CSS variables under one class, and 45 minutes spent proving a five-line toggle innocent.
Development
"Looks the same to me"
A UI redesign, a review comment that named the exact property I never touched, and what it takes to actually fix what someone reports instead of what's around it.
Development
Add a feature, or move a responsibility?
Adding Postiz social cross-posting looked done until a blunt question exposed a double-post bug, and a full audit of every posting path in the app found two more like it.
Development
Deleting an integration by moving it to Postiz
Routing Dev.to publishing through Postiz and deleting the native client: the DTO that validates stricter than the runtime, the draft that isn't, and a cover image lost to local storage.
Development
Deleting a publishing integration I just built
Removing the never-used native Hashnode integration: 31 files, +14/-1126, a grep that lied a little, and the architecture question the deletion forced.
Development
The Postiz webhook I couldn't build, and polling instead
A spike that ended in "don't build this": private-IP rejection, an unauthenticated empty payload, and the pull API that had everything the push lacked.
Development
Scheduling and smarter link-sharing for my Postiz cross-poster
Future scheduling, richer blurbs with thumbnails, and a which-URL picker, plus the wall-clock timezone bug and the import that copied the wrong column.
Development
The config change that was already done (Postiz public API)
A prerequisite ticket said to flip a flag that was already on. Reading the source at the deployed tag turned a no-op into three corrections.
Development
Hashnode cross-posting in the blog manager
Hashnode is a third syndication target, and the first over GraphQL: no client gem, a two-step publish flow, and sync by slug instead of draft ID.
