I tried LocalSend to send a photo from my phone to desktop, but the phone cannot detect any the desktop, possibly since the desktop is connected to the network via Ethernet.

I can post the photo to messenger, but that would be suboptimal privacy-wise. How do you guys move photos between phone and desktop? Thanks in advance!

EDIT: Sorry that I did not clarify, but the computer is shared for my family, so it has Windows (10) on it. Some country-specific proprietary apps do not like Linux :<

    … and for Gnome based distros, Valent is a good adaptation of KDE Connect. For a long time, the SFTP file sharing feature wasn’t working, but someone finally updated the security protocols and you can access your phone as if it were connected via USB with MTP, but over the network.

    There are still lots of flaws, like limited features on notification handling, messaging (I can’t do anything like respond or initiate messages for Google Voice).
