Schedule posts to Reddit: limits, media rules and setup
Reddit is a social network. Publaro publishes there once Reddit has approved the app, and tells you the status first.
Publaro publishes to Reddit once the platform has approved the app
Reddit reviews every app that posts for other people. Until that review is passed, posts to Reddit cannot be made public, and Publaro says so before you schedule rather than failing silently.
