It's a bit of a crude workaround but that might work. My use-case is that I frequently browse to a site on my mobile and want to view it later on my desktop machine. I could do that with a couple clicks easily before. Now I will have to keep a bunch of tabs open on my mobile and remember to manually go and check for them when I'm back on the desktop.
Just one example, I would browse through my Twitter feed before going to sleep. Any interesting links from Twitter were sent to the desktop machine from the mobile. In the morning, I would start Firefox on the desktop and a bunch of new tabs would automatically pop open, which was great.

- tombrossman 10y agoJust checked the Pushbullet site intending to see if they support Linux and to review their privacy policies. "Sign in with Google" or "Sign in with Facebook" are the only options on their sign in page. It does look like a cool service but not at all aligned with my privacy and open-source concerns. Thanks anyway.
- technofiend 10y agoBlergh, sorry. I could have sworn they had an e-mail option. Sign in with Google does allow mirror of alerts (texts, hangouts, etc) from your Android device to others but if that's not in your comfort zone so be it.
