Beta: Post to Loforo Bookmarklet
We have a beta/prototype "Post to Loforo" bookmarklet. If you'd like to test it, drag-and-drop the link below into your browser's bookmark toolbar (see the bottom of this post to learn how to add it on iPhone/Android browsers like Chrome and Safari):
After you've added the bookmarklet to your toolbar, click it while on a page that has content you want to post to Loforo and we'll try to do the magic to get the right image/video/embed code added to the Create post form. Again, this is considered "beta" and offers limited functionality (for example, it will only pick 1 image/video from the page instead of letting you pick 1 or more images). It also has custom support for a number of sites like Youtube, giphy, gfycat, Thumbsnap, etc) -- for sites it doesn't recognize, it will fallback to posting a plain link to the page you're on.
