โค๏ธ Thanks for Joining TwitterShots!
Hey everyone! Back in October 2023, I kicked off this project on GitHub, and it's been awesome to see over a hundred new folks hopping on daily to share their tweet screenshots. Huge shoutout to all of you for using the toolโit means a lot!
๐ก What's the Deal with TwitterShots?
The inspiration behind TwitterShots came from the buzz around the new iPhone launch. People were posting their order confirmations and sharing screenshots of each other's tweets. I tried a bunch of screenshot tools, but they either broke with Twitter's API updates or struggled with long threads. So, I thought, why not make a simpler tool for capturing those moments?
๐ธ How to Snap Tweet?
I love Twitter and wanted a quick way to grab a screenshot and make it share-worthy.
- Pasting URLs on some other site? Yawn.
- Browser extensions? Too many steps!
So, I came up with the idea of adding "shots" to the domain name for easy screenshotting. Then Elon rebranded Twitter to X, ๐ and here we areโjust trying to keep things fun!
I've been listening to your feedback! Here's what's new:
- Screenshots of quoted tweets
- X thread screenshot
- Snapping articles
- Showing link previews, polls, and other cool card info
Got more ideas? I'd love to hear them! Hit me up via this link feedback or on Twitter 0xinhua. I hope TwitterShots makes your sharing experience smoother and more fun. Let's connect!
