    The terms of use appear that they handle your data. If you wamt to avoid a thirdparty. i would suggest KDE connect, can combine with tailscale for cross network sends. Syncthing is also good. or Croc for single transfers either local or across networks.

    I’m still transferring stuff between my phone and computer using FTP, like some caveman.

        Same. Plus, on local network, everything stay on the network.

        I’m starting watch a movie on my PC, then move the movie file into a synced folder, na finish the movie 2" later on my phone.

      At least you’re not emailing yourself files.

      I had a script in termux that used exiftool to rename and organize photos and then rsync them to my backup. That was on an older phone. I need to do that again!

    I use KDE connect for that, it works pretty well. I don’t use KDE so I’m probably missing out on some features but file transfer, sending clipboard contents, media control etc all work
