Sharing buttons for blog posts #165

Closed torotimes closed 2 years ago

torotimes commented 2 years ago

Hey @Prid13 - right now we don't offer sharing buttons at the end (or top?) of our blog posts.

We could experiment with setting up sharing for LinkedIn, Twitter and maybe Reddit?

Do you wanna explore some options - or do you want me to suggest a couple of variations before you get started?

I'd like to keep it clean and classy, not too dominant in terms of style and shape.

There's some good thinking and a relatively nice implementation here: https://medium.com/steven-krohn/stop-your-social-share-buttons-from-tracking-your-visitors-and-slowing-your-page-speeds-b5c5ed4e0056

@jonny-wg2 - any preferences from your end?

Posthog has a nice share button layout. I like how it's not in color - taking away from the content.

Perhaps we can do twitter, linkedin, reddit, email as share buttons

Apologies for my tardiness, but here're some suggestions:

At TOP

Screenshot_8562

On SIDEBAR

Screenshot_8560

At BOTTOM

Screenshot_8561

Personal preference: top and bottom would be handy :)

Hey @Prid13

Good stuff!

Let's go for this option:

On top (not in sidebar): The four social buttons plus the link button.

On bottom: the sharing tray, with a "drop down" with four buttons and the link button.

See example implementation here
