Discord: not needed. LinkedIn: 3 hashtags (5 max) at the end. Carrying the tag block across is the single most obvious sign of an automated cross-post.
Links are fine on Discord. On LinkedIn they cut distribution — the link belongs in a comment, not in the post.
You can post to Discord today with a credential you generate yourself. LinkedIn gates posting behind a platform review — see our API approval notes for what that actually takes.
Discord is casual and short, like talking in a channel. LinkedIn is professional and first-person; the hook must fit in 210 characters. Those are different jobs, so the same words cannot do both well — and every algorithm here demotes text that obviously was not written for it. The fix is not to skip cross-posting; it is to send a native version to each network.
curl -X POST https://postwire.io/api/post \

"platforms": ["discord", "linkedin"],
"text": "Your post",
"per_platform": {
"discord": { "text": "The Discord version" },
"linkedin": { "text": "The LinkedIn version" }
}
}'
PostWire's /api/generate writes those per-platform versions for you from a single prompt, respecting
every limit in the table above. From an AI agent it is one MCP tool call.
