We used to joke in 2010s: what is Internet Explorer? It's a program that is used to download a browser.

Nowadays, what is Mozilla Firefox? It's a repository you fork to make a browser.

I know that habit of using messenger app for notes :) Try [matrix] using Element or SchildiChat. It's e2eencrypted and federated, and even supports markdown formatting in messages. Also some Slack features are included. The only issue for non-techy person might be verifying sessions - just be sure to use the same client on all devices.

Check out "Keys to Drawing" book by Bert Dodson. It gives a good versatile introduction without unnecessary 'academic drawing' pressure.

Yeah, actually it also has a HTTP server, in case you need to transfer something big one way and don't want to bother with FTP connection

If by wirelessly you mean via Wi-Fi network then one convenient option is qrcp. It generates a QR-code right in your terminal, which you can scan with a phone and send/receive files through a web interface on the URL it provides.

If you want to transfer files regularly, there is another option. Almost every distro has Python installed, and the Python has a "built-in" FTP server. You need to just cd into desired directory and run the command python -m pyftpdlib -w. It will open a FTP server with root in this directory. You then can access it through a file manager, like Material Files for example, and send files and folders back and forth. In Material Files you can save the server address for future use.

I'm glad I didn't sit by and deleted all my posts and comments.

Helvetica has its very distinctive soulless and dense corporate look. Arial is the same but diluted, like some instant coffee.

A small illustration resulted from attempt to make an icon for the Voyager app. Thought it would fit here. Any feedback appreciated.
