The ideal photo upload to Micro.blog for my workflow would start in Drafts, use an Action to select photo(s), generate alt text with AI, upload it/them to Micro.blog, and then paste the Markdown with alt text at the cursor in Drafts.

I currently have two separate actions/shortcuts for doing this.

@pratik If one is using iA Writer to write a post it’s as simple as tapping the Command Keyboard button (onscreen shortcut) which has an option to add a photo to the current document. That brings up the Photos chooser. That will insert the photo. Done. Unfortunately it only allows one photo at a time.

It’s possible to then just publish the draft straight to micro.blog and it will bring up the draft ready to edit in browser.

The only downside of this method is that there is no setting for the save location or quality size of the saved image on the local device. It just places a jpeg into the same directory as the text file you are editing.
