I'm prototyping a fediverse sharing button. Anyone interested in giving it a try?

Feature highlights:

- shows a logo of supported fediverse software
- lets you share selected text
- remembers the last fediverse domain used

Demo: fediverse-share-button.stefanb
Download: github.com/stefanbohacek/fediv

@stefan this is AMAZINGGGGGG! THIS IS EXACTLY what I was hoping they would be used

@liaizon Thank you! And thank you for the amazing work putting this together!

I wonder if you accept suggestions/requests 🙃

@ErikUden compiled a list of similar projects on his own take on this functionality: github.com/Uden-AI/fediverse-s

Some of these seem no longer active, and some are Mastodon-branded, which is in part why I made this.

@stefan looks ok.

And thank you for creating this. Always wondered why nobody built it yet. Seems like such an important feature.

@FifiSch Ďakujem za vyskúšanie!

Pár podobných projektov existuje: stefanbohacek.online/@stefan/1

Ale mne sa najviac páči moja verzia :-)

@stefan The demo page seemed to work for me!

A screenshot of a webpage. The header has my user icon (a pixel art goblin head) and says: "Signed in as: @nickdrawthing@dice.camp" 
There is a prompt to share text, and the text field contains: "The Conquest of Bread by Petr Alekseevich Kropotkin & https://fediverse-share-button.stefanbohacek.dev/"

@liilliil Very interesting, thank you for sharing this!

@stefan@stefanbohacek.online Cool! I just tried it and it works with #Sharkey, too. Probably because Sharkey uses Mastodon's front-end API instead of Misskey's.

So you can add support for Sharkey to the list of supported software!

@stefan
This works amazingly well !
Thank you for putting this online and for the sharing 😁

Stefan Bohacek

@Marius Thank you, really appreciate you trying this out!

Stefan Bohacek

Huge thanks to everyone sharing this, and for trying it out!

I added an FAQ section: github.com/stefanbohacek/fediv

Anything I missed, or should elaborate on?

@stefan Waiting for the WordPress plugin version 🤔

Stefan Bohacek

@cybeardjm Funny, I haven't actually thought about that. I didn't really make a WP version for simplesharingbuttons.com either.

But this is a great idea, it can definitely help with adoption. Thank you!

Stefan Bohacek

@cybeardjm I've thought about that, but I'm honestly done with corporate-owned social media. I'm still pretty attached to this old project as it's one of my most popular ones, I've had people make donations over the first few years, and I was also recognized as the creator on a job interview.

I haven't touched it in a while, but I really can't bring myself to shutting it down.

@stefan On AMF, I had to use "Add2Any" as the least worst solution, and it doesn't even work/appear on all my very old posts with no visible (for me) reason...

DJM (freelance for hire)

@stefan Don't shut it down, there's no reason to do so, but expand it to :fediverse:

Stefan Bohacek

@cybeardjm Fair enough, I'll give it some more thought!

Chirayu :verified: :flipboard:

@stefan not just the fediverse but I really want a :mastodon: share button across the websites and popular platforms like we have for Twitter, Facebook, Reddit etc

(it's a shame YouTube dot com still doesn't have it)

The adoption will come after the intrigue and familiarising it via a share icon will be of great service.

@stefan the same bookmarklet code you use for Diaspora should work for Friendica too. https://wiki.friendi.ca/ressources?s[]=share
