Share an article

X, LinkedIn and Reddit, under the prose rather than above it — somebody shares an article they have read.

Every article here ends with three links: X, LinkedIn and Reddit. Each is an ordinary anchor to that network's own compose screen, with the article's address and its headline already filled in, opening in a new tab so a half-read article is not lost behind it.

All three networks publish a script that draws its own button, keeps a count, and sees everybody who loads the page it sits on. This site's claim is that a document you convert is never sent anywhere, and a page that quietly loaded three trackers under the prose would be making that claim with its fingers crossed. A plain anchor does the same work: nothing runs until the reader clicks, and the only request that leaves is the one they asked for.

The names are spelled out rather than drawn, for a duller reason. The icon set this site uses has a LinkedIn glyph and the old Twitter bird, no X mark and no Reddit one — a bird beside a real logo beside an approximate Snoo reads as three different decisions, where three words read as one.

What it does not do

It is for the articles, not for your documents. Sharing something you converted is a different screen with different rules: private, a link anybody with it can open, or named addresses that each sign in. And nothing here publishes on your behalf — the link opens the network's own compose box, and the network asks you before anything is posted.
