Lately, I have been preparing my texts in @drafts and then publishing or sending them in any way. It's a pity that it didn't work out this way to answer toots in #Mastodon. I wrote another small action that allows you to respond to toots. Just save the link to the toot in the first line of the #draft (title) and write the answer in its body.

I was looking for how to indent list items in @drafts and found out there was a super easy way to do it using an action (of course). Just need to change the outdent and indent actions in the Editing group from cmd+[ and cmd+] to tab and shift tab. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p7FAZeZ-6fc

Building a Shortcut for Readwise:
I used Readwise Reader to highlight some parts of @eleanorkonik‘s Obsidian Roundup.
The shortcut I‘m developing now pulls the highlights of the latest element in the Readwise library and formats them into a draft in @drafts 👌🏼

You can now export recipes from ClipDish as Markdown to @drafts
This is really cool if you're using Drafts to manage your shopping list.

I've switched over from Pinboard to keeping all my web bookmarks in Drafts (go figure 😁).
I didn't want to lose my history, so I wrote an action to import my pin history from a Pinboard backup file. Possibly useful, at least as a starting point, for others...

Sometimes you have more to say than you can fit in a single post, and you want to post a thread to Mastodon.

I made a custom syntax for @draftsapp to manage gifts and online orders. It’s a variant of TaskPaper with colorization and handling of tappable list items that cycle through three states: just an idea, ordered, and received. Perhaps useful to someone. https://directory.getdrafts.com/s/2FO
