I still haven't found a better way than sending yourself a message. It can be email or it can be IM; all platforms have working email/XMPP/Matrix clients where this can work. Email is probably a bit harder to self-host but still doable; the other two are easy in comparison. For Matrix the standard client is Element, for XMPP that would probably be Conversations. For emails I highly recommend using deltachat (https://delta.chat/en/ https://delta.chat/en/), which gives a more IM-like interface along with automagic e2e encryption. All of those are applications, so they have the share modal.
- Fiahil 5y agoI could send myself an email, but it's not even a good option for shared devices like ipad. I don't want to expose the full content of my email account, nor private messages on that device, therefore, sending emails is not the best solution.
- rakoo 5y agoI completely agree. I would say that in that case the best is to have a specific shared account, which only contains stuff you want to exchange between your devices, but that means juggling with multiple accounts from the sender's device.
