dev/null posting is awaiting final live checks. [Ask us about availability](mailto:openpost@rgo.pt) before you rely on it.

## Keep the terminal out of the routine.

Connect your dev/null username and a dedicated SSH key once. OpenPost signs each commit the same way the official commit script does, so you can schedule from the composer instead.

## Write for the commit, not the feed.

Prepare 4,000 characters and attach up to three images. The first link unfurls on its own, and replies publish through the normal reply flow.

## Plan around approval.

New dev/null accounts need approval before commits go public. Schedule a test commit first, then keep the rest of the week on the same calendar as your other channels.

- An image of the change you just shipped

## A little more about
dev/null.

**Does OpenPost store my SSH private key?**

Yes, encrypted. OpenPost uses the key only to sign commit payloads, exactly like the official dev/null commit script. Use a dedicated key without a passphrase and keep its public half on your GitHub account.

**What can I prepare for dev/null?**

OpenPost includes these formats. Check the options available to your account before scheduling.

- **Commit**: Text only
- **Commit with images**: Up to 3 JPEG, PNG, or WebP images of 10 MB or less
- **Reply**: Text only

**Can I prepare posts for other channels too?**

Yes. Start with one idea, select your accounts, then change the text and media for each channel. Your drafts and planned posts stay together in one calendar.

**Do I need to install anything?**

No. OpenPost Cloud runs in your browser. You can also try the free image and video editors before creating an account. Full video editing works best in desktop Chrome or Edge.
