As I conversed with kencode of @Agorise, I couldn’t help but think about a concept that’s been simmering in the back of my mind for years. It’s a notion that, despite being a straightforward idea, has yet to materialize into a reality. I’m talking about a platform-agnostic content creation app that can streamline the workflow for creators like us.

For those unfamiliar, the GrayJay mobile app is a great example of a simple, yet brilliant concept. It allows users to follow their favorite creators across multiple platforms, making it easy to access content without being tied to a specific platform. I’m convinced that a similar app for content creation, which I’ll call the “Ultimate Content Creation Desktop App,” is long overdue.

The Problem with Current Solutions

We’re drowning in a sea of apps for content consumption, but the tools for content creation are often platform-specific. This limits our flexibility and forces us to jump between different apps, wasting time and energy. Even audio and video podcasters face a similar challenge, relying on manual uploads and link sharing.

The Vision

Imagine a desktop app that lets you create, schedule, and publish content across multiple platforms with ease. With the Ultimate Content Creation Desktop App, you’d have:

  • A Markdown editor with real-time preview
  • A wallet/vault for multiple blockchain chains
  • A password manager for platforms not yet Web3-savvy
  • Media upload capabilities, including the ability to browse and download Creative Commons-licensed images
  • A simple, intuitive GUI that makes you want to use it
  • A chat section to collaborate with a locally hosted LLaMA (like the Obsidian plugin SystemSculpt AI)
  • Scheduling capabilities with automatic upload and background running
  • Live streaming to platforms like Rumble, with the option to restream to other platforms
  • Integration with blockchain-based wallets, like WhaleVault, for secure, decentralized storage

The Possibilities

This app would revolutionize the way we work as creators. No more tedious manual uploads, link sharing, or worrying about platform-specific limitations. The Ultimate Content Creation Desktop App would empower us to focus on what matters most – creating content that resonates with our audiences.

Conclusion

We’re living in a world where Web3 promises to empower creators, but it’s often restricted to those who are fully invested in a particular token or ecosystem. It’s time for a platform-agnostic content creation app that truly serves the needs of creators everywhere. Let’s join forces to make this vision a reality!

Grayjay is freakin awesome!
No mention of syndication or RSS though?
By the way, Grayjay also supports plugins, so it would be awesome if we made a slick Blurt posting plugin for Grayjay that also syndicated outwards, not just the content injest/subscribe.

Once the walled gardens realize that they can't control people anymore due to RSS and syndication initiatives (shameless self-plug: Peerhub), those corpse-orations are DONE.

From what I understand GrayJay doesnt send anything out. It just pulls stuff in. So a Blurt plugin would just pull stuff from Blurt not send it.
But if I remember right the Peertube plugin for GrayJay did work with Cast.Garden. So Peerhub sites should already be on it.
Since I dont spend much time on my phone anymore I havent tested it lately.

But with our Plugin installed, it could syndicate out the content pulled in.
All Peerhub-powered sites work in Grayjay due to its extended support for RSS and Podcasting 2.0 Certified elements.
