meme stolen
The first time it paused my YouTube video inside Firefox when a call came in on my phone, it blew my mind. And then when the call ended, it just casually resumed the video. I love it. That, the clipboard syncing and easy sharing of files between devices make it absolutely awesome to have.
I’m not really familiar with KDE connect (and new to Linux in general, but can’t see myself ever going back to Windows), could you elaborate on the first part? How does KDE Connect help you watch firefox videos on your phone? Thanks!
And plenty of banking apps consider it as a security threat. 😅
“It’s so good that other apps are threatened merely by its presence”
F-Droid is the more valuable app store anyway. I always check there before Google Play.
Forged google play, use the aurora store instead
Better to avoid 3 k’s where possible.
The KDE Konnect Kult: Where acronyms shouldn’t be used.
KDE Connect is so good that there is a user-maintained version that works in GNOME as well.
Google Play
Is that like Aurora Store for google cucks?
everytime i missplace my phone this saves me so much time
Tbh it’s kind of a terrible app. I can never keep it connected and the UX is just painful. The most useful feature is transferring files, but when uploading to my PC the dialog box always closes itself before I can see where the file went.
it goes to your download folder
It is very nice but the officle app depents a lot on qt what is really anoing. It would be really nice if I could use a gtk version of it on hyprland
I never could get it to work in KDE Neon.
you need to be on the same network which also means excluding VPN on local network (or connect both PC and phone on the same VPN network)
I have a cheap “remote” for my PC, so I rarely use it for media or couch watching, BUT
Take ~50 photos
Get home
Two or three taps
Now they’re all on my PC.
I use syncthing for that, don’t even need any taps after it’s set up. Did I mention I love syncthing? Because I love syncthing.
Could you clap your hands to confirm you really love it?
Syncthing knows I love it, it needs no proof.
