I'm so excited to share Mastopoet, a tool made by @raikas that allows you to capture Mastodon posts as beautiful images and share them across the Internet. This makes posts much more eye-catching in other social medias for instance.  

Use the tool: https://mastopoet.ohjelmoi.fi

Browse the source code: https://github.com/raikasdev/mastopoet

Mastopoet supports #MastodonBirdUI and options to show metrics in textual or icons or hide them completely.

Please note: If you use this tool to share toots, remember to copy the post text as alt text, thank you!

@rolle @raikas one small non-issue I noticed: the output file is named "mastopoAt.png" instead of (the probably intended) "mastopoEt.png".

On a sidenote: Is there a reason the output is PNG instead of - let's say - WebP?

@mihawk90 @rolle PNG is more widely supported by social media sites for uploading. WEBP is used more for content delivery in my opinion.

@raikas @rolle makes sense. I must admit I am not huge on going to various social media places so I wouldn't be able to judge the level of support.
