IT KEEPS ME OFF THE DOPAMINE SLOT MACHINES OF OUTRAGE!
I don’t have to open a single social media app just to post anymore. This app is worth far more than it costs.
For me, staying off social media is non-negotiable, but I still wanted a way to share interests and updates without stepping back into the outrage echo chamber even once!

Indispensable tool
Good for cross-posting, but also for sharing links to a single destination. The text shot feature generates alt text too.
Indispensable pour Mastodon
Dommage de ne pas avoir une comptabilité avec macOS et c’est mon unique remarque !!!!!
Setup to where?
NOTHING in the setup matched any of the images in the tutorial. Said to go to Safari, but where? Tutorial not clear at all. Links doesn’t appear anywhere it was suppose to. URL copied to clipboard from another app? What app? Linky doesn’t appear anywhere? No banner. What main screen? In what app? What settings? Where? I had such high hopes. Too confusing. So I suppose I have to go to AMEX to cancel and get my money back. Have to find an app that works.

great app BUT
i wish the developers had a mac version, or at least let me install the iPhone version on my mac.
Best Secret iOS Mastodon Trick
This app is an absolute godsend 🙏 for posting on Mastodon.
Linky makes it so easy to include text clips and photos to create the most professional appearing Toots possible.
Using simple cut and paste, it can also be used to post on other social media apps and message/text (but unfortunately, you do lose the text clip.)
Wish Apple provided better support for Apple News (no clips.) There are a few other instances where it doesn’t quite work as intended which is not the developers fault.
Highly recommended! This one is a no-brainer purchase 🤗

A great app
I really like this app. I use it to share articles (with personal commentary added) all the time. I hope in the future it will natively incorporate sharing to micro.blog. That’d be pretty awesome.
Still the best way to share
Linky had to remove Twitter support, but that’s Twitter’s fault, not Linky’s. It’s still my favorite way to quickly share text and pictures to Mastodon!
Favorite ‘Posting’ App
This App makes it so easy to post content on Mastodon and other social media sites. It is a real Godsend! I use it as intended on Mastodon and also do a ‘copy and paste’ for text messaging and other functions. Glad to see developers continuing to support this favored App!
Unersetzlich
Für Twitter und Mastodon Crossposten und extrahiert Vorschau Bilder von Webseiten 😃
Really handy app for your share sheet
Particularly with mastodon use increasing, this app helps cross post in a more manual (and friendly) way. Handles ALT text for images, song sharing services and even content warnings for Mastodon!
Response from developer
Hi, thank you for this feedback. Good news, latest update of Linky shipped today adds support for attaching alternative texts (alt-text) to images for both Twitter and Mastodon.
Supports alt text!
Update: As of Dec 2022, now supports alt text for both Mastodon and Twitter, thank you!
Très pratique !
L’app est bien faite et très pratique à utiliser :)
Response from developer
Bonne nouvelle, la mise à jour d'ajourd'hui ajoute le support pour attacher un texte alternatif (alt-text) aux images pour Twitter et Mastodon. J'espère que Linky mérite désormais 5 étoiles ;-).
Best App to Post Stuff
Love this App and glad to see it finally updated. Was worried that the developers dropped it. Best App I’ve found to quickly post an excerpt with associated link.
I use to post to Twitter and Mastodon every day. Also good for Facebook and posting into a text or iMessage - but have to copy and paste as FB no longer allows direct inserts. Big time saver

Great for Mastodon
There are lots of Mastodon clients out there now but some of them lack share extensions, and those that have them sometimes aren’t great. This is a world class share sheet extension with tons of features that will work no matter what Mastodon app or server you use. Super convenient!
Response from developer
Thank you for this nice review. It's good to read.
Great Utility
A fanatic, low-stress and long-running utility. Every time I’ve wanted it to fix one extra detail, I’ve discovered that Linky already does it. (ALT text in its generated text shots, posting to Mastodon).
Highly recommended

Nifty utility, and a joy to use (but)
This is something I use every day (though not as much as apps dedicated to Mastodon or Twitter alone). It has a lot of use cases if you occasionally crosspost or want to share links without disrupting your flow.
But there are two things it would take for me to give this app a 5-star review:
1. Alt text in images. For all the great markup facilities, I won’t post images from Linky, because I can’t add alt text – and this is one area where ease of crossposting (when you’re not just saving a simple copy-and-paste) would really be a huge asset.
2. Content warnings when crossposting. At the moment you can’t add a Mastodon CW/spoiler if you’re crossposting to Twitter. Content warnings are ubiquitous on Mastodon, so it’s not great to limit this to Mastodon-only posts. Ideally, I’d like the to be able to add a CW, and have it work in the usual way on Mastodon, but then have the option either to include it (prefixed by CW) as part of a tweet, or to omit it on Twitter.

can’t connect twitter
how resolve?
This app is magic!
I keep finding fun new settings that make sharing text shots and urls better. Highlighting in text shot images, url shorteners, and composing preferences bring Linky to the next level.
The one thing that would bring it to 5 stars for me would be syncing settings between devices.

Glad to see an update
App works as intended, glad to see a new update.
