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.

      Pretty much everything 😄

      • links from browser
      • selected text
      • quick notes / thoughts
      • sometimes even just a sentence I don’t want to lose

      The problem (for me) wasn’t what to capture, but how fast and from where.

      I tried things like Linkwarden too — great tool, but still feels tied to specific entry points (browser extension, app, etc.).

      What I kept missing was something more “universal”, where capturing is always one step away regardless of device or context.
