simpleauthority aaronpk: This sounds really cool. I'd be happy to give it a try once I get my stuff working properly again. Some questions (or feature suggestions, if they don't exist yet):
#
simpleauthority 1. Can it upload multiple photos at once as a photo post?
#
simpleauthority 2. Can we optionally add some text to the post that gets created (I know we can go back later and edit, but would be cool as part of optional post flow)

#
aaronpk my goal with this is to specifically _not_ have any steps between taking the photo and it appearing on your website. there are other apps like https://sunlit.io which are more like that. the one thing I could maybe justify is the "multiple photos as a single post", but I am struggling to see how to do that in a way that alos doesn't add friction to the quick snap-and-post the way it currently

aaronpk works

GWG aaronpk: I wish there were more Indieweb apps for Android though
#
GWG I've been adrift since Indiepass left the store.
#
aaronpk ah sorry, i'm not planning on doing any android apps
#
GWG aaronpk: I thought you were going to suggest I outsource it. Either way, I wasn't suggesting you do it, I was just missing the workflow

#
simpleauthority I can see your point about not having any steps. I imagine it could be an opt-in feature before one starts snapping though.
#
simpleauthority But in any case, cool project!
#
simpleauthority aaronpk: maybe like selecting from gallery after that fact and sharing to the app, or a toggle mode to let you take multiple photos at once and press a button to signal that you're done.

chokito76 aaronpk: Nice app! While checking out the app site, the Micropub protocol got my attention. I think I’ll look into it a bit more deeply—from what I gather, it would be extremely useful for a web app I’ve been working on.
