Action buttons

Not every visitor shares, but many appreciate your content. Action buttons give them something to do: show appreciation with a clap, copy the link, print the page or support you through a donation button that sends them to your own donation page. Claps are counted separately, so your share total only ever reflects real shares.

However, the challenge lies in integrating these buttons without sacrificing your website's performance or its visual appeal. Often, these buttons rely on externally hosted scripts that can slow down your website, disrupting the user experience. Additionally, you may find yourself limited in where you can position them on your blog or website.
Furthermore, who authorized these scripts to track your visitors, and what exactly are they doing with that valuable data? It's time to take control of your website's performance and your visitors' privacy.
