What is the Gnome equivalent? If you mean GSconnect, that's an implementation of kde connect. I think kde connect has some CLI tools, but they're not super ergonomic.

For CLI stuff, I usually just run the python http server or woof and make a QR code with the URL.

What about sharing from your phone to your laptop?

KDE Connect allows you to send individual files both ways and also to browse files on your phone from your computer. It is also capable of sharing the clipboard and open link from one device to another, as well as controlling input (mouse and keyboard) from another device.

Yeah I know but we were talking about CLI alternatives and the person said they used a quick python http webserver, but that doesn't work the other way.

Personally, I use pairdrop for that. Though, if I'm limited to CLI, woof has an upload option (-U) allowing me to select a file from the phone. Don't know of an easy way to do that from the builtin http.server.
