▲ 35 ▼ How do you capture things quickly across devices in a self-hosted setup? (lemmy.world) submitted 7 months ago by oldany@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world 41 comments fedilink hide all child comments 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.

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. permalink fedilink source parent
