Manual Posting vs Automated Distribution

Manual Method

  • Upload the same video to Facebook after posting to Reddit
  • Copy and reformat captions for each platform
  • Constantly context-switch between apps
  • Risk forgetting to post to Facebook
  • Spend 10-15 minutes per post managing distribution
  • Miss peak posting times on Facebook

PostOnce Automation

  • Post to Reddit like normal—we handle Facebook
  • Captions automatically adapted for Facebook
  • Stay in your favorite platform's workflow
  • Every Reddit post automatically appears on Facebook
  • Set up once in under 60 seconds
  • Consistent posting schedule maintained automatically

Manual posting might work when you're just starting out, but as your content volume grows, automation becomes essential. The difference isn't just time saved—it's the ability to maintain a consistent multi-platform presence without burning out.

How to Set Up Reddit to Facebook Automation

1

Connect Reddit and Facebook

Link both social accounts to PostOnce using secure OAuth authorization.

Reddit uses standard OAuth and Facebook requires standard authorization. Both connect in seconds.

2

Configure your automation rules

Choose to crosspost everything or filter by hashtags, content type, or custom rules.

Your Reddit captions fit within Facebook's limits, so default settings work great.

3

Post on Reddit as usual

Create content on Reddit and PostOnce handles Facebook distribution.

Both platforms use 16:9 format, so your content transfers seamlessly.

Flexible Automation Options

Control exactly how your Reddit content gets distributed to Facebook with powerful automation rules.

Post Everything

Every Reddit post automatically goes to Facebook

Filter by Hashtag

Use specific hashtags to control what gets crossposted to Facebook

Custom Rules

Set advanced filters based on your Reddit to Facebook workflow needs

Most creators use hashtag filtering to maintain control over their crossposting workflow. For instance, you might want all your Reddit tutorials to go to Facebook, but keep personal content separate. Simply add a specific hashtag like #autopost to your Reddit caption, and only those posts will be distributed.

If you want to repurpose content from Reddit to Facebook, you can also customize how captions, formats, and media are adapted for each platform's unique audience and requirements.
