Great work ! I was looking for something like this, I'll try it out. :D

By the way, while searching I also stumbled upon this [repository](https://github.com/shahednasser/cross-post#readme) that aims to do the same thing as your tool. I haven't tried it yet, but maybe you'll find some ideas for solving the issues with Hashode !

Thanks a lot! Even I saw that repo, it's written in Javascript and things work differently in BASH. The variable in BASH should escape characters like `"` and `\` so it breaks sometimes. Still thanks for the help.

Thanks, Its still a bit buggy and doesn't work for many corner cases. Trying to fix those asap.

This is awesome!

Was actually in need of something How does it deal with the specific embed changes for each platform?

Codepen/tweets etc

Thanks, it just currently supports markdown because it is posting the content from a BASH script certain characters like `double quotes` and escape characters(`\`) are causing weird issues. I'll let you know once those are supported and it reaches that level of perfectness.
