Great in idea, but kinda janky

I greatly appreciate the idea of an app for posting to Bluesky and Mastodon at once, as well as in general a posting-only app so I can make posts but avoid looking at my timeline.

However I have brought up the problem of Mastodon posts being capped to 500 characters several times. Despite being acknowledged as an issue since some Mastodon instances permit more than 500 characters, as of the current version, posts are still capped at 500 characters.

has become unusable

this app used to be much better, but the transitions between views have become so slow it is entirely unusable

Approved by this French gal

I mostly use mastodon, but also have a Bluesky account so I can keep in touch with friends only on that platform. Croissant makes it super easy to post (and thread!) on both platforms, and does it in style too. Very much recommended!

Monthly Subscription

They expect you to pay a rather ridiculous monthly subscription, to use FREE Mastodon, a FOSS service, as well as BlueSky and Threads, if anyone cares. I can see a 1 time fee for your coding work. Subscription, LOL. Nope.

Lovely

Came back to this after trying other cross posters. Beautifully designed, well worth the yearly subscription price.

Unable to Add Threads

I like this app a lot, I’m able to post from Bluesky and Threads on my MacBook but when it comes to doing it on my phone, it doesn’t work.. I’m trying to add my threads account and all I get is a blank page.

Simple, great UX but functionality issues and major bugs hold this app back

Videos doesn’t seem to post to any platform. Tested with a 2 minute video that was successfully uploaded via each platform’s native apps, but would take forever (with no progress bar) and eventually fail to post to each of the three supported platforms using Croissant.

Posts with URL attachments will sometimes not load the preview, and when posting to Bluesky the post is likely to fail. Going back to the failed draft, adding a space and deleting the space and then retrying to post to Bluesky seems to push it through, but the need to post twice defeats the purpose of this app. Once these major bugs are resolved, I’ll be very satisfied with my license purchase!

So. Many. Issues.

I was happy to buy a license when this was first released but the updates aren’t dry frequent and there are so many issues posting. They are mostly with Bluesky but posting there rarely works. I’ve tried my regular user name and password and even used an app specific password and have experienced nothing but issues. On the other hand I have used another app for Bluesky and once I provided it with an app specific password it has never had an issue. Someone has figured it out but it wasn’t the more expensive of the two apps.

Used to be great now broken, still supported??

This worked great and saved me a ton of time for several months but now it won’t post to Threads and constantly crashes. Reinstall does nothing, I want to believe 😥😢🫠

So simple, so good

This app is so dang good. It’s classic “do one thing well” with strong design opinions. Absolutely worth the cost of you try to post to multiple social platforms at all.

Pratique

Application pratique qui permet de publier des posts rapidement sur les réseaux sociaux.

L’ajout d’autres réseaux sociaux comme LinkedIn, TikTok ou Instagram seraient le top.

Does the job

Previous issue was resolved and the app is once smooth and easy to use.

Doesn’t open on Mac

I want to love this app! The UI is so clean, it’s quick, and has a lovely vibe. It works great on iOS and iPadOS, but when opening croissant on my Mac (M2 Mac mini) it refuses to open, just says “Not responding”. Hope this can be fixed soon, thanks!

App é excelente, mas instável

App está fora do ar há dias! Alguém consegue me ajudar?

Works fine on iPhone, not opening on iPad

Easy to use on the iPhone, but on the iPad all I get is a white or black screen.

Bon concept, mais buggé

J'aime beaucoup le concept de l'app, et j'ai même pris l'abonnement annuel très cher qui va avec. C'est exactement l'app qu'il me faut.

Toutefois, je ne la recommande pas. En tout cas pas avant qu'elle soit stabilisée. Une fois sur deux mes posts ne s'envoient pas. Parfois c'est un service en particulier qui plante, mais parfois c'est juste Croissant.
Ce matin par exemple j'essaie de poster un thread de 6 posts. Croissant Mac n'arrive pas à les poster sur aucun service, mouline à l'infini, je dois le force-quit et perdre mes posts. C'est franchement inacceptable à 20€ par an et après plus de 3 mois.

Au passage, l'interface pour faire des threads est mal-conçue. Le dev a essayé de faire un truc fancy pour rajouter des posts, mais ça n'est pas intuitif et en plus ce n'est pas clair comment supprimer un post en particulier et ça m'est arrivé de supprimer tout le thread à la place (encore).

Bref, je suis assez patient mais là ça commence à me souler, j'ai payé un abonnement, je veux une app qui marche, merci.

Stopped working for me.

Only opens to blank white or black screen. Was very useful originally.

Excellent Support from the Start

I had an issue adding my account so emailed support, who immediately wrote back and helped! Top tier support and lovely design and feel of the app🎉

Mostly does the trick

This mostly does the trick consistently, but when it messes up significant chunks of work are lost. Quite a bit of lag on posting to Threads. Sometimes freezes on posting altogether, post appears in drafts on reboot but only restores one part of the post and wipes the whole thing from drafts, losing the work.
