Ariadne — share threads

Good writing happens on Mastodon in threads. Someone posts, replies to themselves, and keeps going until an essay exists — spread across a dozen posts, interleaved with other people's replies, and held together by a link that stops working the day the post is deleted. Ariadne takes that thread out and gives you back the article it always was. You share a Mastodon post from Safari or from your Mastodon client. Ariadne walks up to the first post of the author's thread, follows the chain of self-replies to the end, and hands you a clean document: the author's name and full @handle@instance, their words with the paragraphs they wrote, and their pictures where they put them. No avatars, no boost counts, no interface chrome. From there it goes wherever you send it — Notes, Files, Obsidian, Messages, email, anywhere the share sheet reaches. In a hurry? "PDF from Thread", "Markdown from Thread"…
