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.

I have linkwarden set up for this.

On Android I share to the linkwarden app to save, on pc i use the Firefox addon.

Sure it's fragmented but I'm already used to doing things different between mobile and pc anyways.
