Out of interest, why do the videos need to be posted at a specific time? As the world rotates, different people are awake all the time. Are they specific to your local area?
The land, and thus the population of the earth aren't distrubuted equally across the globe. This causes a day-night cycle for online communities, despite being international, just due to the fact that the majority of humans live somewhat close together on a global scale.
That's true, I hadn't thought of that. So the optimal time to get the most people waking up to your content is about 01:30 UTC for India waking up from 7am (UTC+5:30), or 23:00 UTC for China at UTC+8!

If there really is an equal distribution of users across the globe, yes. But you also need to consider that most users here are probably from Europe or north america, but I'm not sure about that.
Yeah, and there's no way to know.
Not without asking all instances to pile together the IPs that access them, I suppose. But there are ways to make educated guesses, like using polls and interpolating that data.
It is entirely me wanting people to see them. Many sort by new, hot, top x hours etc. I'd just like to make people happy by posting stuff at an optimized time.
I could possibly help you with all this. If you wanna DM me, we can set up time to work on this.

If you can figure out some way to upload it to your desired destination and get a link to it, maybe this bot can help you post on lemmy at a specific time of the week/day.
I've actually fully automated my uploads to youtube. It's been over 10 years since I set it up, but I can tell you I use youtube_upload from pip and I'm pretty sure I had to make an app password. I wrote a little bash script to make sure it's only done in the middle of the night. I'm not a dev either so if my dumb ass can figure it out, I'm sure you can too :)
This Lemmy community has a great set of intro Linux lessons to get you started:

The scheduling command for a one-time future run is the "at" command.
Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn't work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !linuxupskillchallenge@programming.dev
There's probably something than can be done with a curl command through the API.
Have you tried leveraging a LLM ai with prompts matching your needs? I've heard it can be quite effective, especially for someone with some programming background. E.g. "write me a python script that..."
Said LLM would need to know how to use the Lemmy API. And none of them do.
Unless it used something applicable in its training maybe?
