When I tried medium it sent my post to the drafts folder and then I had to publish it from there manually. Is it how this should be working?

If we have to publish it manually anyway, I can't see any extra benefit of cross-posting on medium since it won't reduce our workload. Or this has something to do with medium's rules?

Apart from that I would really love to see the Post Schedule feature for steem/steemit on masdacs.io. This could be an awesome feature many users want to use.
