Susan The site I write for, like almost every news site from the NYT on down includes a twitter button for sharing.
I'd like to see a mastodon button that anyone can put on their websites to replace the twitter button that is readily available
Laffy@SusanKraemer On my first day here, I tooted the same thing. I begged for news sites to add a Mastodon share button. Now, we have to manually copy/paste every story we want to share.
Matþew Bowles@GottaLaff @SusanKraemer If you're on mobile, installing an app should give you a share option that might not be obvious
If on a PC/laptop, then setting up a bookmarklet should be relatively straightforward, but it's 10+ yrs since I did one of them and I'm very rusty, I'll have a look into it next few days
Scratch that, someone's done one, seems to work
Mastodon Toot Bookmarklet https://rknightuk.github.io/mastodon-toot-bookmarklet/
Gabriele Pollara@matgb @GottaLaff @SusanKraemer you're right. If you make whatever #Mastodon server you use as a standalone app / PWA, then it becomes a Windows share option for any website. Works v well.
Agree though, a share button is even easier / click-and-go for those that don't like to set things up.
