Sometime i want to send small messages between devices, such as a url, a note, a id, a token, a piece of code, a picture Especially send between phone and laptop.

Some chatting app have self messages such as telegram saved messages, slack (you), Microsoft team…

However i don’t want a bloated chat app that would took few hundred mb on phone, or required to install an app on my pc (linux which make many app broken). I don’t want work chat app too, because self messages can be seen and scanned by employer (yes, a security add on chatbot on slack warm me because i send something like password to myself on slack)

Something like Opera Flow would fit perfectly, but i don’t want opera browser.

    +1 for KDE Connect.

    Especially in OPs use case of transmitting small snippets such as urls, the automatic clipboard synchronization should be very useful.

      Indeed, if you’re just using devices on the same network, it just shares your clipboard. So if you copy something on one device, paste is available on the other. It’s pretty sweet.
