      Maybe it’s just a me problem, but I always have had troubles getting KDE Connect connecting my phone to other devices than my desktop. My phone and laptop could both be connected to the same wifi and be within inches of each other but refuse to acknowledge their existence. But I have my phone on the other side of the world and I swear it’ll be able to connect to my desktop with no problem.

      KDE Connect is a pretty good program, but I can’t recommend it because of the troubles I always have.

        It’s ability to connect your phone to your computer is honestly awful. It would be better if they just openly popped up a window and told you to pick the IP, but they even have to hide that and not support it on every platform.

        My laptop’s plugged in my phone’s on a Wi-Fi network they’re on different VLANs. They could let me search for it by DNS name. They could let me just use a couple of static IPs so when I go from home to work it could find it in either place.

        If you have any equipment beyond a crappy one band ap, it’s just going to fight you every time you want to use it.

        I love the software, I love the plugins It’s just too damn bad that You have to remember to screw with it every time you think you might want to use it.

        I had this too until I discovered my router doesn’t allow communication between devices connected to the 5GHz band. 2.4GHz works fine so now I have everything connected to that

          I’ll definitely have to check that out later to see if that fixes the problem.

          Thanks for the info.

    Hey I use my own app every day. Let me tell you about it. :)

    nephele-serve is the dedicated server version that I use to manage all my Jellyfin movies and TV shows. I also back up all my systems to it with DejaDup.

    QuickDAV is the desktop app version that I use to transfer files around all of my way too many PCs, tablets, and phones (I develop mobile apps too, so I have a lot of devices). It’s easier (and usually faster) than using a USB stick, and it’s safer than leaving shares open all the time.

    They’re both open source and use the same server software, Nephele, that I wrote for my email service, Port87.

    Oh I’m also working on putting up a Docker image for nephele-serve and a Flatpak of QuickDAV.

        I’m not exactly sure what you mean, since Syncthing doesn’t do either of the things I was talking about.

        • Syncthing is for syncing files.
        • nephele-serve is for running a dedicated WebDAV server.
        • QuickDAV is for transferring files.

        Syncthing has its own use cases, they’re just not the ones I use these apps for.

    Somewhat self promoting for the first two of these items as I’m directly involved. Leaving out the more obvious ones (Linux distro etc.) as they will have been mentioned. I’ll stick to some of the less known things I use.

      Thanks for highlighting Pulsar.

      I always found Atom clunky, but it was instrumental in changing how editors were made, perceived, and used.

      It did not deserve the death/abandonment it got.

        Atom was my go-to editor while in school–hard to believe it’s been long enough to be abandoned already. I’m going to have to check Pulsar out.

      Dust has completely replaced du in my every day work. Other tools also written in Rust I make use of include Bat for an upgraded experience from cat, Tokei for quickly counting and recognising codes, and several other security tools like RustScan.

      I learn about Joplin today. Thank you for sharing your list.

      Not that there’s anything wrong with newpipe, just additional information:

      Sponsor block is now avaliable on Firefox mobile app. It even works for YouTube videos that are embedded in other sites.

        Thank you for pointing that out. I knew Firefox had updated to enable desktop add-ons to work with mobile but I didn’t see Sponsor Block when I took a quick look.
