When I come home and my phone connects to the wifi that my Linux (Gnome) PC is also connected to, I would like all my new photos to be automatically sent from my phone to my PC.

I would like this to happen without:
- sending the photos via any third party on the internet
- using any proprietary apps
- having to set up Syncthing or anything similarly difficult

Is this even possible? If not, what's the second best alternative?

Thank you!

I don't have a solution for you unfortunately but I can mention what I do, a manual process, not automatic, in case it might be useful.

I use `kdeconnect` [*] to link my phone to my Linux desktop. From the phone, I select all the photos I want to send to my desktop and click on the share button. Done!

[*] despite the name, `kdeconnect` does not require the KDE desktop.
