Open source way to connect your devices together. I just got it and it seems pretty dope. Anyone used this, or something similar before?
It’s gimped for me because it insists on using an insecure sftp algorithm, so I cannot use the file system browser to transfer files to/from my Android 13 devices. It probably can’t access the root anyway. I want to use it for backing up my device files, especially the Android folder.
KDE Connect utilizes SSHFS in order to securely and wirelessly mount your Android device’s file system to your computers. You will be able to browse all of the files on your device via your preferred file manager whether that be Dolphin, Nemo, Nautilus, Thunar, etc.

Everything else seems to work though.
It can’t do that. You give it an empty folder and that folder is sync’d.
That’s nice, but since android 11 you can’t do that anymore.
