What's This Post About?
This is really just a test post to make sure my website is picking up the new post.
See, I have a couple of N8N workflows for my custom website that generate blog posts. One is a This Day in Tech History and the other a This Day in Weather History post. Those workflows each generate a new post every morning, post it to the website so I can review and publish it.
But now I'm working on a feature where any post I make on various social media sites — such as Dev.to, Reddit, GitHub, etc. — gets picked up by the site via an N8N workflow.
The workflow works by checking every 30 minutes to see if I've made a post on (at the moment, Reddit or Dev.to) and if it sees a new post, it will add it to my socials page. So I have a central list of all posts I've made.
(Honestly, I was just looking for an excuse to automate something. It's not extremely well organized yet — it's just kind of a prototype... but it seems to be working, and that's what this post is about.) To see if the workflow functions properly. It has picked up all my previous posts across Reddit and Dev.to, but will it get the new post?
Only time will tell. If you want to see my website, it's linked in my bio or you can just click here
