KDEConnect pulls the whole KDE dependencies with it which I do not want while using Unity. That is the only thing that is stopping me from using it. Pushbullet works well for now.

KDE has split up most of the libraries over the last few releases, so the situation's much improved now.

KDEConnect still pulls in a few dependencies, but it's not 300MB anymore.

Sure, but, meh. A few dozen RAW picture files take more space.

Storage is cheap nowadays and KDE applications generally are of such high quality that it's definitely worth it.

Other examples are Digikam (hands-down the best picture organizer) and Krita (which rivals Photoshop for digital artists).
