🔧 Fix this

Ideas a builder, maker or community group could start on:

  1. A mobile app feature that automatically saves post drafts locally before attempting to upload to the server.
  2. A background synchronization tool that retries failed post uploads once a stable connection is detected.
  3. An error reporting dashboard within the app that notifies users immediately if a post submission fails.
