Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    KDE Connect is the best! Also why isn't the app called KDE Konnekt 🤣 (lemmy.world)

    Sounds like phone link by Microsoft. Pretty neat, there should be a disclosure here or edit. You can't browse all of Android file system unless you root the device Google has locked down some file paths due to exploitation by the end user and attackers.

    Eh thats kind of obvious one. You can't access such files from your phone either without root. He reffered /sdcard

    I think one difference may be that it actually works. I could never get the Windows Phone Link to work with my S9 when I was trying it.

    Not sure if that would have to do with the age of your device or not though. Just a thought worth putting out there. Which would mean KDE does better with older devices and that is nice.

    Also as a user who has never had problems with phone link. My answer would be that we are both a logical fallacy for our experiences to represent the experiences of others.

    I like Phone Link and I will give KDE a try for sure, especially if it works well. However, I find myself not using it as often as I thought I would.
