Only when it suits their agenda

I think my grievance is in how “do it for me” I expected the app to be. Setup was simple enough, syncing files seemed to work fine. Sharing files between users I never figured out, and is why I got the application in the first place.

I guess when I hear file transfer, I assume that interuser transfers should be just as easy as system to system transfers.

I think I expected the app to do things it isn’t for, easier than it does. Tbh I can’t exactly remember, as I found it near the beginning of my selfhosting journey and my mind was swimming with new information at the time. It’s possible I’m just a big dummy 😅

Ok so it shouldn’t be on this list then, or should at least have a disclaimer that it isn’t the greatest for user to user file transfers

I’ve used all of these except packet and localsend.

Warpinator: your firewall is closed open it. It’s a fine app, insecure mode is a bit like airdrop for Apple devices, send files to any unsecured warpinator instance on your network.

KDE connect: calling this a file transfer app is like calling a Corvette a radio. Like, yeah it does that but that’s not the point. If ALL you want is file transfer, there are smaller apps. S’good shit though, check it out.

Syncthing: idk maybe I’m dumb but I didn’t get it. Felt like it was for backups, could never access my files on the destination device after transfers despite verification that they are in fact where I put them. Maybe a weird permissions issue?

Android run on top of Linux. Once upon a time it was a Java VM sitting on a Linux kernel, it’s roots are still there though it’s blown up quite a bit since then.

It’s not entirely incorrect to say Linux is somewhere between a bootloader and a bios for Android.

In my experience, persistent joint pain can be mitigated by working the muscles that pad that joint.

Consider doing some yoga or basic tai-chi that will stretch the region that is in pain. As you move through forms and poses you will figure out which muscle or muscle group needs to be strengthened and you will find movements that work it.

I’ve got some gnarly arthritis so my joints are always inflamed. Yoga helps me to keep the muscles strong enough to power through the inflammation without pain, though with arthritis it always hurts a little 🥲
