My music stopped playing, the phone rang, I answered it.
After speaking for a few minutes, I hung up and the music started up again.

It took me a second to realize that the music wasn't coming from my phone, it was coming from my computer.

#KDEConnect is groovy, y'all. It pauses your music when a phone call comes in. (MPRIS-compatible player required, of course, but even mpv on the command line can do that)

@RL_Dane I like sending 2FA codes from my phone to my desktop via KDE Connect (clipboard sharing).

Also nice for sending a URL from your desktop browser to someone via text.

Yes! I also use it for forwarding screenshots from plasma to my phone without having to save it as a file.

I use the kdeconnect-sms feature a LOT, although I've found it to be rather finicky/flaky.
