Also shout out to KDE connect!
2 comments

I've been trying to get kde connect working for about a month and I've yet to get to the point where my laptop and phone can actually 'see' each other even after whilelisting the ports in the firewall (or turning it completely off for that matter). FWIW I'm on Endevor OS (arch) with an xps 13 and a pixel 5a.
Why would you need to make any changes to your firewall? Are you trying to use KDE Connect from outside of your LAN?
No, it was just the main suggestion when I said I couldn't connect.
My favorite feature is KRunner -- a tiny on-screen program launcher, calculator, and dictionary (and more) all in one! :D
