USB cables involve about 5 steps and half my cables don't work because they were not built sturdy enough and got chomped by my office chair, standing desk, or something else.
There should be a way to just right click and "send to phone"
- xyzzy_plugh 3y agoHighly recommend KDE Connect, even if it seems like it's not relevant for you (the KDE bit) it's quite solid.
- mixmastamyk 3y agoI have a hub and an extra cable hidden under my keyboard. When I need to plug in a device for power or thunderbolt transfer it is a two step... 1) grab cable 2) plug in. Konnect is fine for other cases.
