Let's POSSE to Mastodon with a Feed and a GitHub Action
After building a Node script for my own POSSE needs, I thought it would be good if other people could also use it. I knew not many people would be able to use the script as-is, so I built a GitHub Action that is much simpler to use, without losing any feature, even gaining some!

When reading about @morepolite, it reminded me about Jolicloud. Looks like it's normal: https://www.jolicloud.com/
