Gibberish automation

By Zsolt Benke

We should have some form of automation for Gibberish. Like a shortcut or something which I can use to start a post.

I mean the app is great and I usually do my brainfarts in that app, but it would be nice to actually use Drafts to start a post.

I checked the web version of Gibberish, but there is no API. It is a Rails app (which is cool), but I can’t really do anything with it.

What I want to is to have something like this:

  1. A way to create new threads from Drafts
  2. A way to copy link to existing threads, so I can continue writing them immediately

We can get a URL for the final public text, but I don’t use Gibberish like that. I mean I can publish stuff with it, but the main idea for me is to have chat threads which can be exported into something at the end. I just like this UI.

I could use Strflow like this, but it has channels which is a bit limited, and I like that Gibberish has these chat bubbles. I also think that it is a healthy way to think about the app like an actual blog since this makes me write and publish more stuff, even if I host that somewhere else.
