Super easy to use and setup - I currently use it to share between my android phone and my linux laptop

The terms of use appear that they handle your data. If you wamt to avoid a thirdparty. i would suggest KDE connect, can combine with tailscale for cross network sends. Syncthing is also good. or Croc for single transfers either local or across networks.

I'm still transferring stuff between my phone and computer using FTP, like some caveman.

@freamon
I started using SyncThing. Highly recommended.
@stringcat-
Same. Plus, on local network, everything stay on the network.
I'm starting watch a movie on my PC, then move the movie file into a synced folder, na finish the movie 2" later on my phone.

At least you're not emailing yourself files.

Yep, except with http here (
python3 -m uploadserver). -
I had a script in termux that used exiftool to rename and organize photos and then rsync them to my backup. That was on an older phone. I need to do that again!

Me too.. using MTP for my phone to lap transfers.Nothing ever came fast as cable transfer.

I use KDE connect for that, it works pretty well. I don't use KDE so I'm probably missing out on some features but file transfer, sending clipboard contents, media control etc all work
