Certainly, no contributors get into projects with the sole purpose to get a financial gain out of them. Open source has never been about money either.

The social media landscape from Twitter and Mastodon to Instagram and TikTok has, for better or worse, centralized on sharing text highlights and quotes as images rather than as plain text.

However, one of the features that I’ve been missing for a while now on Notado is exporting screenshots for social sharing.
