How to use MastodonShare

Sharing content in Mastodon can be difficult because people use many domains and apps, and you don't know where to link. MastodonShare allows your visitors to share content in their Mastodon instances, without the need to use browser extensions or apps.

MastodonShare will ask for their Mastodon instance and redirect them right to share the content. It will keep a simple cookie with the instance, so they will not be asked again.

How it works

Simply create a link to:

  • https://mastodonshare.com/?text=your+text
  • https://mastodonshare.com/?url=yourURL.com
  • https://mastodonshare.com/?text=text&url=yourURL.com
  • or https://mastodonshare.com/share and will fetch the referring URL!
