Adding ShareOpenly to Posts
I had a small coding itch today after giving the PSAT, so I decided to finally add back in an easy way to share posts from the blog. ShareOpenly is a service which allows anyone to share to any of the federated platforms from any other place. There's no account and no login needed to use the link, but you do need an account on the fediverse (Mastodon, Threads, etc) in order for the link to work.
I used to worry about how much people shared what I wrote, especially when I was on Twitter a little too much. Those days are gone, but this was an easy way to touch a little bit of template code today and make things a little easier.
In addition to adding the button at the bottom of each post when it's generated, I cleaned up a little bit of CSS and added some headings to my sidebar containers. There's still fixing I want to do to the theme, but that'll come later with more time to test the changes. In particular, I want to take what I'm learning from Every Layout and apply it here so I have a more flexible, fully-responsive layout.
Onward.
