I just had to email me a file I got sent to my phone and I feel unable to accept this as the better solution.

What you do guys use for inter-device communication?

I use a mix of few things

  • kapus.app for starters where a device is completely new and I need to pass some secrets like login to Nextcloud to get keepass or something
  • Nextcloud - documents that I rarely access. Some bigger files
  • syncthing - for often access files like main keepass. Home server acts as a de-facto hub.
  • quick share for an airdrop replacement
  • if quick share is not working for some reason I also have a private channel on matrix where I can share some stuff quickly as-hoc
