I’ve been struggling with something that sounds simple but is surprisingly annoying:

capturing content quickly across devices in a self-hosted environment.

On Android there’s share, on iOS shortcuts, on desktop copy/paste… but everything feels fragmented.

I often end up losing things or postponing them just because capturing isn’t frictionless.

Curious how others handle this.

    Yeah that’s actually what I tried at some point too 😄

    But I always felt it’s still a workaround — you’re adapting a tool that wasn’t really built for capturing.

    The friction is lower, but it’s still there.

    I keep thinking there should be something more “native” to this use case, something that sits between devices and apps rather than inside one of them.
