Have you ever interacted with the website of another Mastodon server and found yourself having to re-enter your username and password, again and again?

There's a new browser extension called FediAct which lets you directly interact with other servers' websites without having to log in again or copy/paste addresses.

➡️ Chrome:
chrome.google.com/webstore/det

➡️ Firefox:
addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firef

More info about it at:

➡️ github.com/Lartsch/FediAct

The developer of FediAct is @lartsch

Thank you!

Considering when I attempt to log in I receive "incorrect user name and/or password".

Even when user name is my email address (hasn't changed) and I've verified my password (hasn't changed).

I'm afraid to logout, because I don't know if I'll be able to re-log in.

FediTips has moved!

@lartsch

p.s. Using this extension is really easy:

1. Log in through your server's website (your server's website is the last part of your handle, for example mine is mstdn.social)

2. Install FediAct on your web browser (Firefox or Chrome)

3. Go to FediAct's settings page and enter your server (so for example mine is mstdn.social)

...that's it! While you are logged in on your own server's website, you can also interact with any Mastodon site without having to log in again or copy/paste.

Omg this will be a game changer for me in terms of usability. It drives me INSANE and is a significant barrier to my engagement. Thank you @lartsch.

@feditips @lartsch The add on is not trusted by Chrome’s Enhanced Safe Browsing, so I will wait a bit to see what happens.

I've been hoping to see exactly this! I hope this becomes available for @Vivaldi, too!

@feditips @lartsch Also, if you are accessing Mastodon through a web browser, you can go into settings >>> preferences and check "Enable advanced web interface" to get an interface that is quite similar to tweetdeck. cc @emptywheel
