How do you capture things quickly across devices in a self-hosted setup? (lemmy.world)

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 haven't seen anyone mention Readeck. I use Readeck for those 'read it later' articles, etc. It has a Firefox extension. I've found it works very well. You can highlight a paragraph of an article, and save that to Readeck as well. In fact, when I consult with AI, I'll highlight the entire page and shoot it to my Readeck instance, otherwise it will just link the AI platform and not the content.
