I wonder if KDE Connect/GSConnect will ever have the option of starting a phone from your PC?

thanks to #kdeconnect / #gsconnect and #unison I have a #syncthing like experience.
I only have to start the sync manually via terminal, which actually is ok.
Because my wife uses only her smartphone, I can sync weekly my digital heritage (all the important files in #cryptomator) to her phone.
This way she has all the stuff she needs in case a an accident or death.
#linux or #foss is so great, because you find easy and family friendly solutions without the cloud
So I switched to #kdeconnect and #gsconnect for syncing stuff to my #android phone. Actually this quite nice with some minor hickups.
But ... the phone is mounted automatically to via ftp. You have to add /storage/emulated/0/Documents to the mount for modern androidos.
But then I can easy sync stuff if rsync, because I can access over the terminal via /run/user/1000/gvfs/sftp:host=IPADRESS,port=1739/storage/emulated/0/
Don't we just love #linux for this stuff....
It's an app for Android.
People on #gnome desktops can use the extension called #gsconnect instead.
GSConnect auf Linux Mint installiert. Läuft nicht, weil keine Gnome Shell. Also wieder deinstalliert und KDEConnect drauf. Daraufhin crasht der Celluloid Videoplayer. Auch wieder runter damit.
Natürlich sind noch ein paar Abhängigkeiten übrig geblieben. Jetzt hab ich bei jedem Start die Auswahl zwischen Cinnamon, KDE und Gnome.
Found a local file and clipboard transfer alternative to #KDEconnect called #localsend. its missing media control and remote mouse input but it doesn't appear to have the dependency bloat of kdeconnect or #gsconnect. I care about this because #XFCE is my preferred desktop environment its lightweight, fast, and the design language is more intuitive to me.
KDE connect on iOS with GSConnect on gnome are a godsend!
I do a lot of capturing on my good old iphone 12. Be it audio, video, images or pointclouds. The exchange to Linux is smooth <3
