I have my own [micropub](https://indieweb.org/micropub) implementation and server which means I can quickly fire off the odd photo or note pretty easily, but when I'm writing a long form post, I find it quite irritating to have to manually do file management with images. PicGo + SFTP means that I can stop worrying about that and with the touch of a few keys, I can have images in my clipboard uploaded to my website and replaced with relevant markdown image embed code. +### Telemetry + +Before I launch into this, I noticed that PicGo does seem to collect telemetry.

I imagine it's easy enough on Mac and Windows too.
