Someone pointed out it’s actually a usb stick with two different ends, which sounds pretty neat. I also thought it was like a cable without the actual cable part so your phone would just be dangling there awkwardly
oh that makes more sense, yeah it looks like an adapter which feels terrible to use. but also if you need a quick transfer, doing it over a cable or wifi is still better since you only copy once that way.
The USB Type-C is useful for sharing files offline between smartphones while the USB Type-A is useful when you want to backup files to a PC at some point.
FX File Explorer + local servers = check and mate. If I need access to it immediately from a machine, put it on my /home/drive/desktop folder and it will sync to my computers in a few seconds, via synology drive. This also works over the internet, so I can move the files at home, leave, and power up my laptop to see them available, seamlessly.
I have a second server running Debian that does the first half, but not the syncing part. It’s more for docker stuff, not personal files.
I’m disabled too, so the less I have to physically move around, the better. Having a server to just dump stuff on and access from anywhere is amazing.
Just use up one of those gift cards you can use in any store and use that number for free trial signups. Then they can’t charge you when the trial period expires.
