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 I get what you mean 🙂

    Shortcuts work (that’s what I’m using on iOS right now), but they can feel a bit “indirect” compared to something more native like share sheets or drag & drop.

    Curious to hear how it feels once you try it — especially what feels frictionless vs what doesn’t.

      Small update: DropMind just showed up in today’s selfh.st newsletter under development activity.

      Feels like the idea is slowly starting to resonate — curious to see how people end up using it in their own setups.

        Just pushed a small update based on real usage feedback.

        Fixed a couple of issues (attachments cleanup + clipboard counts) and improved the Apple Shortcut for multiple items.

        Still keeping things simple and focused on fast capture.
