Pitfalls of gists

I've been using gists for the last few days and I really wish there was a way of searching through the gists I've created.

That's the main downside I've noticed.

However, being able to post directly from vscode with gistpad is great.

Things I would add:

  • Paste to add a link to an uploaded file (video or image).
    • If the thing being pasted is an image or gif, or video, under a certain size it should be uploaded to an account.
  • Filter and search through gists
  • Auto tweet content
    • For markdown files can set tweet: true in frontmatter data, which should trigger an action that tweets the content.
    • Auto section the content into something that can be a tweet thread.
    • Code blocks can be transformed into a screenshot of the code and maybe a link to read the code snippet.
