The free functions *defer*, *dispatch* and *post* all have the exact same set of overloads and description in the library's reference (version 1.66.0). I also couldn't find anything on the subject in the *Overview* section of the library's documentation.

Is the differences between them clearly described somewhere else, that I've missed, or could someone explain it?

I found the following presentation https://chriskohlhoff.github.io/executors/ useful. Dispatch, post and defer are specifically described in slides 15 to 18. F.
