I made a dump folder on sync thing. When I want to share a file or 12, move it the dump folder and presto - the files are moved.

But yes, a USB drive is still very good for transfer, especially lots of files to other people.

I usually just use Bluetooth cuz I’m only transferring an image or two over. But if it’s something big, I just use USB transfer because when the phone is plugged into the computer, it appears as an external drive.

Using this double sided boy seems like it would be putting a lot of weight on the USB port… 🤔

I use KDE connect…

But my grandfather does the ol reliable method for image upload, which is:

  1. emails it to himself
  2. prints the email off
  3. scans the printout into his computer again
  4. uploads image to faceboom Facebook

I typo’d Facebook originally but thay was too good to get rid of so I just strikethrough’d it

IR data connection.

Print out on paper & scan it into the computer.

Copy the data into the computer in binary with an electron gun directly to SSD.

Recreate the data from scratch.

Install desktop os onto your phone & use it as your main rig to eliminate the need to transfer data in the first place.

Use an USB cable to connect the phone to a floppy drive & copy the data to floppy discs. And enjoy the asmr sounds as you do so.

Bluetooth if all else fails, but using a2dp dial-up frequencies.

Accept that there is no convenient way to transfer data & just live without it.

Depends on your workflow. I’m usually in google drive anyways. And the file is usually there anyways. So it’s just a few clicks away.

Didn’t want to install something to move stuff of my laptop yesterday. Took a USB which has both a boot partition and a data partition, which worked on my W10 computer and moved it to the W11 laptop and it wouldn’t recognize it…

Long story short, I had to manual set the partition id for the data part using diskpart for the data partition to be recognized. But that was a lot more effort than expected to move a few files over.

Run a ssh server on the phone and rsync stuff over.

I used localsend on desktop, laptop and my phones to sync stuffs between OSes and phones. What I likes is that it support multiplatform out of the box and works flawlessly between Windows, Android and Linux distros (tried both on Ubuntu, and LM without problem). It’s just SHAREit without any stupid weird stuffs on it.
