My GPT told me: don't schedule posts.
And it was right — for about a year.
Now it's wrong, and I'm building the scheduler I swore I'd never use.

When I started, the advice was simple: post manually. The algorithm rewards real humans posting in the moment, not bots dumping a queue at 3am.
For one account, that's true. The reach proved it.

So I posted every single day, by hand, for months. One account, one character, one post. The cadence was the relationship.
It worked. The algorithm noticed.

Then I scaled. Three accounts. Three characters. Multiple drafts in each. Manual posting turned from a discipline into a part-time job.
At 4pm every day I'm in three apps picking drafts. That's not strategy, that's data entry.

The rule wasn't wrong. The context changed.
Good advice has a shelf life. The trick is noticing when it's expired before it costs you months.

My GPT told me: don't schedule posts.
It was right at one account. It's wrong at three. The scheduler ships this week.
