Sure 🙂
What I ended up building is basically a very minimal “capture layer”.
The idea is simple: no matter where you are (phone, browser, desktop), capturing something should always be the same action.
In practice:
Everything goes into the same place instantly, without deciding upfront what it is or where it belongs.
No tags, no structure, no “mode switching”.
Just capture first, decide later (or never).
I built it mainly because I was tired of stitching together different tools depending on context.

That looks cool! And… I think we can extend it to iOS and android apps. The benefit being drag and drop simplicity and sharing sheet access, instead of shortcuts, which have always felt wonky to me.
I’ll play with it first. Thanks for the link!

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.
