I’m running OpenSUSE leap 15.5, When I was on the linux mint, I was using warpinator but using it on openSUSE is troublesome and I wish there was a linux version of blip but unfortunately there is not.

    Use LocalSend. It’s exactly like Apple Airdrop but works on ALL operating systems so no matter what device you have you can easily transfer files.

    It’s local, secure and open source.

      This may be super-nitpicky (and I lose LocalSend and use it a lot), but there is one difference between LocalSend and Airdrop. LocalSend requires network connectivity (and requires the devices to be on the same network), whereas Airdrop can work without any network connection (using Bluetooth).

        You’re right. LocalSend does require WiFi connectivity. In terms of convenience it’s just like Airdrop, if you have that network.

        Maybe one day they could add Bluetooth. Would be cool
