Share to Mastodon

Browser extension for sharing links and tabs to Mastodon, and other Fediverse platforms.

Share to Mastodon is a lightweight browser extension designed for quick sharing of links, tabs, and text snippets to the Mastodon social network and other Fediverse platforms. With a simple click on the toolbar button or a right-click context menu option, users can share the current tab, a selected link, or highlighted text. The extension opens a popup allowing you to edit the pre-filled message before publishing to your account.

Compatible with any Mastodon server, this extension uses the server's native share dialog, requiring no API access. It is open-source and prioritizes user privacy and security, ensuring a trusted experience for Mastodon users. Share to Mastodon is ideal for those wanting seamless integration with the Fediverse while maintaining control over their data.

Extension safety

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Share to Mastodon does not require any sensitive permissions.

Risk impact analysis details
    Risk likelihood
    Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

    Share to Mastodon is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
