## FAQ
###Q: How does this work?**
### Q: How does this work?**
Some fediverse platforms let you [open a sharing prompt via a URL](https://stefanbohacek.com/blog/making-fediverse-apps-for-everyone/#sharing-dialog), much like many [corporate social media sites](https://stefanbohacek.com/blog/simple-sharing-buttons/#facebook).
My sharing button [detects the software](https://github.com/stefanbohacek/fediverse-info) running on the platform based on the provided URL, and shows a matching fediverse logo (courtesy of [Liaizon Wakest](https://fediverse.wake.st/)).
###Q: Does this button or the fediverse-info server collect any information?**
### Q: Does this button or the fediverse-info server collect any information?**
None at all. The [fediverse-info](https://github.com/stefanbohacek/fediverse-info) server is only needed to cache the software information for each domain as not to overwhelm the original server with too many requests.
The last domain used in the domain input field and the fediverse software it's running are both stored in the [site visitor's browser](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_storage) so that when they view another page, or visit the site again later, this information can be reused.
###Q: Are there any similar projects?**

Yes, see a list here: https://github.com/Uden-AI/fediverse-share#similar-projects-to-compare-to, including the [fediverse-share](https://github.com/Uden-AI/fediverse-share) project itself.
