[Feature request] Share a picture and an URL directly from the "share..." menu
Hi!
We all try to make the lemmy fediverse active by posting interesting content! It's currently painful to share a picture I just took. I would love to share it easily.
Currently :
I take a picture
I select "share..." in the iOS menu
I send it to myself as an email to resize it (otherwise it will be rejected because it's too heavy)
I save the picture in my photos
I launch a lemmy app
I go to the right community
I create a new post
I browse the photo library to get the picture
What I would love :
I take a picture
I select "share..." in the iOS menu, I find a lemmy app
I am ready to select the community
(The lemmy app resizes the picture for me)
I know that it is not an easy feature to implement. However, the lemmy fediverse would gain activity from it.
Also : it's less painful, but sharing an URL directly from the browser would also be a must.
I've tossed it onto the backlog--I like the idea, but there are a lot of different moving pieces involved to make that happen. Many of them are already scoped, but I can't give a concrete timeline right now.
Have you tried holding images to Imgur? I share all of my images from there. I have never needed to resize or anything, while it is not perfect it does cut down on steps.
