Kde connect is great, iv always thought about using it but never got round to it as im current using a wm instead of a desktop environment. If i was to switch to a desktop environment kde would be my first choice as it has so many features.
I’ve had issues with it for file sharing, so far that I’m sticking to LocalSend, but I really need to explore KDEConnect further, as I haven’t explored the rest of its features.
I’m sure they’d welcome a pull improving the UX!https://invent.kde.org/network/kdeconnect-kde I think the implementation of the protocol is pretty well isolated from the UI, so pretty radical UI changes should be relatively easy
There’s also a still in-development rival for GNOME, Valent. And it’s a native program and not just a shell extension. I prefer it, and maybe it even has more features.
Mine is kdeconnect which does what local send does plus so much more.

I have kdeconnect on my i3wm.
Iv never tried it on my wm. Ill dow load it and give it a shot.
It used to be considered a security risk back in the day. Maybe it just a security “unknown”
I tried the iOS beta until it expired. Didn’t know it ever made it to the app store.

Wait kdeconnect is Foss?! Can I fix the atrocious gui myself?!? 😂
That application rules but it looks like butt on my workstation.
May I suggest valent?

I just may…
Yeah no complaints on functionality! It’s great!
GSConnect works great for GNOME too.

I found it to be more than I needed. I still have it installed, but use localsend more often
