+*Buffer is very good for posting to Twitter and, to a lesser extent, Facebook. It does other picture and social media apps too.
 * Buffer does not allow posting to ordinary Facebook posts. It does allow posting to a Facebook "page", taht does not show up in people's feeds but does show up on your home page. The best thing might be to use Buffer to post to that, and then repost to the feed manually occasionally.
 *Buffer Stories Creator is not useful for me. It is for use with Instagram, etc. I guess it puts text into image format.

 *Facebook "stories" can be edited on a phone, in theory, but I couldn't find correct instructions fro doing it on a computer. I don't think Buffer will work posting to a "story", but I didn't try hard.
