Just had a request for a "Share on Mastodon" button for a blog.
As far as I know there's no official "Share on Mastodon" button, but there are several third party options.
If you've used a "Share on Mastodon" button on your site, could you give your recommendations/experiences?
@feditips I made my own, along with integrating Mastodon replies and interactions. Code is here:
https://www.codingwithjesse.com/blog/add-mastodon-replies-to-your-blog/
You can now comment on blog posts on Coding with Jesse! I turned off comments years ago, because I was getting tons of spam. But recently, with my return to social media, I decided to integrate Mastodon to give people a way to comment on and interact with my articles.
Jesse, I have a question about the privacy and consent implications of pulling the replies onto your blog:
Does a user know this is happening? Can a user stop this happening?
@markstoneman
The replies don't live on the blog; I don't have a database of replies. The blog is a static site. Bridgy, which I'm using for webmentions, says it handles deletes: https://fed.brid.gy/docs#delete
FediTips has moved!
