How do you crosspost from Twitter to Facebook, and vice versa?

[bandit957]

What apps, programs, or features do you all use to do this nowadays?

You used to be able to have your Twitter posts crossposted automatically to your Facebook timeline, but Facebook disabled this feature over a year ago. You could still have Facebook posts automatically crossposted to Twitter, but Facebook disabled this just a few days ago.

So how do you all get around this?

You can't use your smartphone to text to both at the same time, because Facebook also disabled texting to your timeline over a year ago.

Hootsuite. You can add three social media accounts for free, but I'm not sure if you can use it to post to personal FB timelines and not Pages.

My FB posts on the Page I manage for work automatically get posted to Twitter, but only if I'm using a browser. It doesn't work with the Pages iPhone app, which is why I downloaded Hootsuite.

I tried Hootsuite, but it doesn't post to Facebook personal profiles. I found an article that said Facebook disabled posting from Hootsuite at the same time it disabled posting from Twitter.

Hard to believe it's been well over a year and nobody has developed a new app that can post to Facebook from Twitter.

It could be that neither platform wants people to post to it without actually visiting that platform, and seeing the ads.

I'm on Twitter, but I don't use it nearly as much as Facebook.

According to Facebook, you can still do it by visiting http://www.facebook.com/twitter and it gives you the option to link your timeline to your Twitter account. Twitter disabled automatic posting to Facebook several years ago.

This doesn't work anymore.

Around August 2018, Facebook disabled automatic posting from Twitter, but that was Facebook's doing.
