I wished #Mastodon would implement this: https://activations.cdn.mozilla.net/

It would not be that difficult I presume. Hubzilla and Diaspora have it too (no don't look at me, I have other qualities 😎 😉 ) #development #Mastodondev #share #firefox

@jeroenpraat from the activations.cdn.mozilla.net/ I use Known, there is a plugin to syndicate my blog posts to #mastodon, meaning you can publish on the wide web & syndicate to mastodon instance :)

@rmdes OK, but it's not where it is used for. It is used for sharing a web page you visit. It puts the title and the URL in a text compose box, so you can share easier and quicker web pages with Mastodon.

@jeroenpraat well Known does precisely that too, I can click a button and send it to my blog as a status, bookmark or full fledged post and than syndicate it to here, like if it was a simple #mastodon client.

@rmdes But you have to publish it first somewhere else and than it's forwarded it to Mastodon. I just want to share directly to Mastodon. That is really missing.

@jeroenpraat I understand what you want, indeed, that's missing for Firefox, but available for Chrome keep an eye on this list https://github.com/tootsuite/documentation/blob/master/Using-Mastodon/Apps.md

@rmdes Yes I know Tooter, it's a great tool made by @effy, but I don't want use corporate Chrome or semi-corporate Chromium. I use Firefox. Also Tooter only replaces Twitter buttons on websites, but I want to share every web page. Like good old fashioned bookmarklets can do.
